The last pair of numbers bracket the point 3/7.

12/32 = 3/8 < 3/7

15/18 = 5/6 > 3/7

_____

3/7 ≈ 0.428571... (repeating), so will be larger than 3/8 = 0.375, 12/32 = 3/8, and 4/10. That is, 3/7 is larger than the largest number of each pair except the last.

------

You can always compare two fractions to see which is larger by cross-multiplying. That is a/b vs c/d gives the same result as ad vs bc. (Put the product on the numerator side of the comparison.)

Here, that would mean comparing 12/32 vs 3/7, we would get 12·7 vs 3·32, or 84 vs 96. The fraction on the left is smaller.

Comparing 3/7 vs 15/18, we would get 3·18 vs 7·15, or 54 vs 105. The fraction on the right is larger.

It's a quadratic so the parent function will be
y = x ^{2}
We can see that it has been shifted to the right 5 units, which gives us a new function
y = (x - 5) ^{2}
It has also been shifted up 9 units:
y = (x - 5) ^{2}  + 9
But it has also been flipped across the y-axis which makes this the final change we need to do:
y =  - (x - 5) ^{2}  + 9

Solve the equation for x. the square root of the quantity x minus 8 end quantity plus 2 equals 7 x = 1 x = 13 x = 17 x = 33
Masteriza [31]

The solution of the equation (√x-8) + 2 = 7 is x = 13.

According to the given question.

We have an equation

\sqrt{x - 8} + 2 = 7x

Since, we solve the above equation for x .

Therefore,

\sqrt{x - 8} + 2 = 7

⇒ (√x - 8) = 7 - 2

⇒ (√x - 8) = 5

Squarring both the sides.

⇒ x - 8 = 5

⇒ x = 5 + 8

⇒ x = 13

Hence, the solution of the equation (√x-8) + 2 = 7 is x = 13.
