Grade 11 Rational and Irrational Numbers CCSS: HSN-RN.B.3
Andy wants to prove that the sum of a rational number and irrational number is irrational. He does this by the following.

Given $x$ is a rational number and $y$ is an irrational number. Assume that $x+y$ is rational, and let the sum be represented by $w$. Since any rational number can be represented as the division of two integers, let $x=a/b$ and $w=c/d$, where $a,b,c,d$ are all integers. Therefore, $x+y=w$ can be written as $a/b + y = c/d$. By the subtraction rule of equality, $y = c/d - a/b$. Rewriting the difference of the two fractions (using the multiplicative identity and distributive property), this becomes $y = (cb - ad)/(db)$. Since integers are closed under subtraction and multiplication, $cb-ad$ is an integer, and so is $db$. Therefore, this would make $y$ a rational number, by definition of rational numbers. But this contradicts our given, that $y$ is irrational. Therefore, $x+y$ must be irrational.

Is this proof correct? If not, why?
1. Yes, this proof is correct. It is called a proof by contradiction.
2. No, it is not correct. Andy has to use a two-table format for this to be a valid proof.
3. No, it is not correct. This only proves that $x+y$ is not rational, but that doesn't necessarily mean it is irrational.
4. No, it is not correct. Andy cannot prove something by contradiction; he must directly prove it.
Which of the following is equal to $|1-sqrt(3)|$?
1. $1+sqrt3$
2. $sqrt3-1$
3. $-sqrt3-1$
4. $1-sqrts$
