Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
The wording "when x is an appropriate value" is irrelevant to this question. That phrase should be ignored. (You may want to report this to your teacher.)
When you look at the answer choices, you see that all of them are negative except the last one (D). When you look at the problem fraction, you see that it is positive.
The only reasonable choice is D.

Your calculator can check this for you.
√12/(√3 +3) ≈ 3.4641/(1.7321 +3)
= 3.4641/4.7321 ≈ 0.7321 = -1 +√3

If you want to "rationalize the denominator", then multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator. The conjugate is formed by switching the sign between terms.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
We "rationalize the denominator" in this way to take advantage of the relation ...
(a -b)(a +b) = a² -b²
Using this gets rid of the irrational root in the denominator, hence "rationalizes" the denominator.
We could also have multiplied by (3 -√3)/(3 -√3). This would have made the denominator positive, instead of negative. However, I chose to use (√3 -3) so you could see that all we did was change the sign from (√3 +3).
Answer:
The volume of the composite figure is:
Step-by-step explanation:
To identify the volume of the composite figure, you can divide it in the known figures there, in this case, you can divide the figure in a cube and a pyramid with a square base. Now, we find the volume of each figure and finally add the two volumes.
<em>VOLUME OF THE CUBE.
</em>
Finding the volume of a cube is actually simple, you only must follow the next formula:
- Volume of a cube = base * height * width
So:
- Volume of a cube = 6 ft * 6 ft * 6 ft
- <u>Volume of a cube = 216 ft^3
</u>
<em>VOLUME OF THE PYRAMID.
</em>
The volume of a pyramid with a square base is:
- Volume of a pyramid = 1/3 B * h
Where:
<em>B = area of the base.
</em>
<em>h = height.
</em>
How you can remember, the area of a square is base * height, so B = 6 ft * 6 ft = 36 ft^2, now we can replace in the formula:
- Volume of a pyramid = 1/3 36 ft^2 * 8 ft
- <u>Volume of a pyramid = 96 ft^3
</u>
Finally, we add the volumes found:
- Volume of the composite figure = 216 ft^3 + 96 ft^3
- <u>Volume of the composite figure = 312 ft^3</u>
26% of $880

Answer:
The ratio of the height of the actual table to the height of the model table is .
Step-by-step explanation:
As given
A table is 4 ft high. A model of the table is 6 in. high.
As
1 foot = 12 inch
Now convert 4 ft into inches .
4 ft = 4 × 12
= 48 inches
Height of the actual table = 48 inches
Now the ratio of the height of the actual table to the height of the model
table .
Therefore the ratio of the height of the actual table to the height of the model table is .
