Question

"Now that you’ve created your hypotheses, it’s time to prove them. First, look at the sum of two rational numbers. Let’s say they are two rational numbers, x and y. Because they’re rational, they can be written as a ratio of integers. Let x = a/b and y = C/D, where a, b, c, and d are integers and b and d do not equal 0. The process for finding the sum x + y in terms of a, b, c, and d is shown." Question:Based on this sum and using the closure property of integers, what conclusion can you make about the sum of two rational numbers? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

I've seen a few comments about the answer so the answer the person above me answered is:

"The sum given can seen according to the closure property of rational numbers. The addition of two rational numbers will sum up to a rational number, provided that the rational numbers are ≠ 0 and a set of rational number is closed under the closures property rule, in other words: x + y = y + x."

Answer 2

hello some parts of your question is missing attached below is the missing part

answer: the sum Given it can seen that according to the closure property of Rational numbers the addition of two rational numbers will sum up to a rational number provided that the rational numbers ≠ 0 and a set of rational number is closed under the closures property rule i.e x + y = y + x

Explanation:

using the closure property and based on the sum given :

From the sum Given it can seen that according to the closure property of Rational numbers the addition of two rational numbers will sum up to a rational number provided that the rational numbers ≠ 0 and a set of rational number is closed under the closures property rule i.e x + y = y + x
