Mia says that anytime there is a radical in an addition expression, it automatically has an irrational number as the sum. Is she correct? (1 point ) Yes, radicals are irrational No, some radicals simplify to rational numbers Yes, radicals can't be simplified , so they must be irrational No, radicals always simplify to integers , so they are rational

Answer 1

Mia is incorrect. The correct answer is: No, some radicals simplify to rational numbers.

For example, the square root of 4 is a radical that simplifies to 2, which is a rational number. Therefore, not all expressions with radicals necessarily result in an irrational number when added.
