A farmer uses two types of fertilizers. A 50lb bag of fertilizer A contains 6 lb of nitrogen and 3lb of phosphorus. A 50 lb bag of fertilizer B contains 4 lb each of nitrogen and phosphorus. The minimum requirements for a field are 480 lb of nitrogen and 240 lb of phosphorus. If a 50lb bag of fertilizer A costs $35 and a 50 lb bag of fertilizer B costs $25 find the amount of each type of fertilizer the farmer should use to minimize his cost while still meeting the minimum requirements. mathematically formulate and state the problem.

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?
