Here is your answer:-

Let us assume the contrary that 7 - √5 is rational.

So, we can express 7 - √5 = abab where a and b are co-prime integers and b ≠ 0.

So, √5 = 7 - abab = 7b−ab7b−ab

Because a, b, and 7 are integers 7b−ab7b−ab is rational, implying that √5 is rational.

But this contradicts with the fact that √5 is irrational.

The contradiction is because of the incorrect assumption that 7 - √5 is rational.

∴ We can conclude that 7 - √5 is irrational.
