No.[5 + sqrt(3)] + [1 - sqrt(3)] = 6 is rational

[5 + sqrt(3)] - [1 + sqrt(3)] = 4 is rational

[5 + sqrt(3)] * [5 - sqrt(3)] = 22 is rational

sqrt(8)/sqrt(2) = +/- 2 is rational.

What are irrational numbers closed under?

Irrational numbers are not closed under any of the fundamental operations. You can always find cases where you add two irrational numbers (for example), and get a rational result. On the other hand, the set of real numbers (which includes both rational and irrational numbers) is closed under addition, subtraction, and multiplication - and if you exclude the zero, under division.


What operations are irrational numbers closed under?

None.


Is the set of irrational numbers closed under addition?

no it is not


Is the set of irrational numbers closed under subtraction?

No; here's a counterexample to show that the set of irrational numbers is NOT closed under subtraction: pi - pi = 0. pi is an irrational number. If you subtract it from itself, you get zero, which is a rational number. Closure would require that the difference(answer) be an irrational number as well, which it isn't. Therefore the set of irrational numbers is NOT closed under subtraction.


When is a set of negative irrational numbers closed?

It cannot be closed under the four basic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) because it is indeed possible to come up with two negative irrational numbers such that their sum/difference/product/quotient is a rational number, indicating that the set is not closed. You will have to think of a different operation.


Are a set of irrational numbers closed under exponents?

No. Sqrt (2) is irrational. Square it, or raise it to any even power, and it becomes rational. The set is not closed under exponentiation.


Is the set of irrational numbers closed under mulriplication?

No. You can well multiply two irrational numbers and get a result that is not an irrational number.


Are irrational numbers closed under subtraction?

No, they are not. An irrational number subtracted from itself will give 0, which is rational.


Is an irrational number closed under division?

No. sqrt(8) is irrational sqrt(2) is irrational but sqrt(8) /sqtr(2) = sqrt(4) = ±2 is not irrational.;


What answer choice shows that the set of irrational numbers is not closed under addition?

Are irrational numbers closed under addition?

No. For example, the sum of pi and -pi is zero, which is rational - while each of the addends is irrational.


Are decidable languages closed under any operations?

Yes, decidable languages are closed under operations such as union, intersection, concatenation, and complementation. This means that if a language is decidable, performing these operations on it will result in another decidable language.
