Among the fractions given in this question 11/18 and 5/14, the largest fraction is: 3/5.
- Step-by-step explanation:
To find out which fraction is the largest, just divide the numerator by the denominator of the ratio and make the comparisons between them, thus defining which is the largest by decimal places or the largest number.
We can conclude that the largest fraction, being between 11/18 and 5/14, is 11/18.
<u>Answer </u>
B. f(x) = - (y/x)⁵
<u>Explanation</u>
A negative power means the reciprocal of that number raised to the positive value .
For example, a⁻ⁿ = 1/aⁿ
So, for the question above.
f(x) = -(x/y)⁻⁵
= - 1/(x/y)⁵
= - (y/x)⁵

Explanation:
In any triangle, the sum of any two sides must be greater that the third one.
Therefore, to know if the given sides represent a triangle or not, all what we will do is add the two short sides and compare the result to the largest one.
We would have 3 options:
sum of short sides > longest side ......> It is a triangle
sum of short sides < longest side ......> It is not a triangle
sum of short sides = longest sides ....> It is not a triangle
Now, for the given:
1- Option A:
sum of short sides = 3 + 6 = 9 ft which is equal to the longest side
This option is incorrect
2- Option B:
sum of short sides = 3 + 5 = 8 ft which is greater than the longest side
This option is correct
3- Option C:
sum of short sides = 3 + 6 = 9 ft which is less than the longest side
This option is incorrect
4- Option D:
sum of short sides = 3 + 9 = 12 ft which is less than the longest side
This option is incorrect
Based on the above, the only correct option is B.
Hope this helps :)
You need to find x first but it has to be x×x-4x
