A student in your class says the following. "I'm having a hard time with this lesson, because the rules for rational exponents are so different than the rules for integer exponents." 1. Write a response to your classmate's comment. State whether you agree or disagree with the comment and why. 2a. Choose one of the rules for rational exponents. Explain it to your classmate using complete sentences. 2b. Create a problem and use it to show your classmate how your strategy works. Use complete sentences in your explanation.

let soccer = x and golf = y

part a

1st equation: x + y = 125

2nd equation: x = y +45

part b

replace x in the 1st equation with the 2nd one:

y + 45 + y = 125

simplify:

2y + 45 = 125

subtract 45 from each side:

2y = 80

divide both sides by 2:

y = 80/2

y = 40

she plays golf for 40 minutes.

part c

no because she plays soccer for 45 minutes longer than golf 40 +45 =   85 minutes, not 80 minutes.

step-by-step explanation:

his first public project he is asked to create a small scale drawing. the garden is a right triangle with base 25m and height 30m. are you trying to solve for the last side/hypotenuse? the irrational form of the answer would be 5\sqrt{61}
