Substitution y=1/2x+2, y=x+1

1- is the product of two rational numbers irrational or rational? first, make a hypothesis by multiplying two rational numbers. then, use variables such as x=a/b and y=c/d and the closure property of integers to prove your hypothesis. 2- what do you think the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? is it rational or irrational? make use of variables, the closure property of integers, and possibly a proof by contradiction to prove your hypothesis. 3- why do we have to specify that the rational number must be nonzero when we determine what the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? if the rational number were 0, would it give us the same result we found in part b?

Afactory buys 10% of its components from suppliers b and the rest from supplier c. it is known that 6% of the components it buys are faulty. of the components brought from suppliers a,9% are faulty and of the components bought from suppliers b, 3% are faulty. find the percentage of components bought from supplier c that are faulty.
