Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
LET US ASSUME THAT 6-2√7 IS RATIONAL ,THEN THERE EXISTS TWO INTEGERS p and q such that,
6-2√7=p/q and q is not equal to zero
-2√7=p-6q/q
√7=p-6q/-2q
we know that p-6q/-2q is rational ,but √7 is irrational .
this leads to contradiction. therefore our assumption that 6-2√7 is wrong hence it is an irrational number
