Mr. Townsend needs to make 13 pairs of butterfly wings for costumes for a play. Each pair of wings is made with 3/4 yard of fabric. The fabric costs $8 per yard. You'll apply properties of multiplication in the following steps to find the total cost of the fabric.

1. Use multiplication to write an expression for the amount of fabric needed to make 13 pairs of wings.

Write your answer in the space below.

2. Multiply the amount of fabric by the price per yard to find an expression for the total cost.

Write your answer in the space below.

3. Use the associative and commutative properties to rearrange the terms in the expression to make it easier to calculate. Explain why the rearranged expression is easier to work with.

Write your answer in the space below.

4. Simplify your expression to find the total cost. Show your work.

1- is the product of two rational numbers irrational or rational? first, make a hypothesis by multiplying two rational numbers. then, use variables such as x=a/b and y=c/d and the closure property of integers to prove your hypothesis. 2- 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. 3- 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 part b?
