Answer:

the two expressions that will result in a rational number are:

B. 64x9

E. 64+√5

Explanation:

Expressions that will result in a rational number are:

Expressions that involve only rational numbers, such as integers and fractions.

Expressions that involve square roots of rational numbers, such as √9 = 3 and √16 = 4.

Expressions that involve products and quotients of rational numbers and square roots of rational numbers.

Therefore, the two expressions that will result in a rational number are:

B. 64x9

E. 64+√5

The other expressions involve square roots of irrational numbers, such as √5, which will result in irrational numbers.

Here is a breakdown of each expression:

A. 64+√9/4

This expression involves the square root of an irrational number, √9/4 = 3/2 * √2, so it will result in an irrational number.

B. 64x9

This expression involves only rational numbers, so it will result in a rational number.

C. 6x√5

This expression involves the square root of an irrational number, √5, so it will result in an irrational number.

D. 64-√5

This expression involves the square root of an irrational number, √5, so it will result in an irrational number.

E. 64+√5

This expression involves a rational number and the square root of a rational number, so it will result in a rational number.
