Can someone help me with this. Will Mark brainliest. Need answer and explanation/work. Thank you.

1- 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.2- 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 the first question?

Evaluate the discriminant of each equation. tell how many solutions each equation has and whether the solutions are real or imaginary. x^2 - 4x - 5 = 0

1. if events a and b are non-overlapping events, how do you find the probability that one or the other occurs? 2. what does it mean if p(a or b) equals 1?
