The product is irrational.
To determine whether the product 5.5 times the square root of 5 is rational or irrational, we need to compute the value. 5.5 times the square root of 5 can be written as 5.5 * √5.
To calculate this, we multiply 5.5 by the square root of 5:
5.5 * StartRoot 5 EndRoot
The product of 5.5 and the square root of 5 is a decimal approximation:
≈ 12.2474487
Since the resulting value is a decimal, we can conclude that the product is irrational. Therefore, the correct response is "The product is irrational."
