Here we go
We will prove it by contradiction
Let 7+√3 be rational no
So, 7+√3= p/q
√3 = p/q-7
√3 = p-7q/q
But this can't be possible
Therefore, 7+√3 is iraational

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume to the contrary that 7+√3 is rational .
: 7 + √3 = a/b ( where a and b are integers , b ≠ 0 , and a and b are co - prime)
⇒ √3 = a/b - 7
⇒ √3 =a - 7b/b
since , a and b are integers , thus a/b - 7 is rational and so √3 is also rational . But this contradicts the fact that √3 is irrational . Thus our assumption is wrong that 7 + √3 is rational .
HENCE WE PROVED THAT 7 + √3 IS IRRATIONAL
