Answer:
The square root of x will be evaluated first before the addition of 5. Hence (-3)^2 = 9 and 9 +5 = 14, as per your teacher's answer, which is correct. The answer would not be -4.

Answer:
Using 5.25 cups of flour would make 3 batches of cookies. He made 180 cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
To see how many batches you make all you do is take the 5.25 and divide it by 1.75 because thats how much it takes to make 1. When you divide it you get 3. If there are 5 dozen in each batch thats 60 cookies because 1 dozen is 12. Then,since he made 3 batches you multiply the 60 by 3 and you get 180.
Hope this helps!
Because there are four people on the committee, and four positions, you would do 4 times 4 which gets you an answer of 16. hope this helps!!
Find the common ratio by dividing.
16 / 8 = 2
8 / a = 2
2 / b = 2
The common ratio is 2.
Since we need to find the values of a and b, use the common ratio to solve for them.
8 / 2 = 4 (a)
2 / 2 = 1 (b)
Now, we know that first 5 terms.
We can solve for the 8th term using the previous terms and the common ratio.
6th term: 1 / 2 = 0.5
7th term: 0.5 / 2 = 0.25
8th term: 0.25 / 2 = 0.125
Part A: 2
Part B: a = 4, b = 1
Part C: 0.125
Best of Luck!
