Answer:
Let us assume that 5+√7 is a rational number.
= 5+√7 = p/q where p and q are two integers and q=0
= √7 =p/q-5 = p-5q/q
Since,p,q and 5 are integers so,p-5q/q is a rational number.
= √7 is also a rational number.
But this contradicts the fact that √7 is an irrational number.
This contradictions has arisen due to our assumption that 5+√7 is a rational number.
Hence, 5+√7 is an irrational number.
