It's a rational number. 9 is a perfect square. What you have asked is written as -sqrt(9), which can be written as -sqrt(3*3) which is - 3. That's perfectly OK. What would not be OK is something like -sqrt(10) which is irrational because it cannot be represented as a fraction or a whole number or a repeating decimal or a decimal that terminates.

The options are;
a)4x+12
b)8x+24
c)2x^4+24
d)4x^2+24x+35


dimensions of the photograph
length - 7 inch
width - 5 inch
dimensions of the photo frame is 2x larger than both width and length
length - 7 + 2x
width - 5 + 2x
the perimeter is sum of all 4 sides
Perimeter = 2(7 + 2x) + 2(5 + 2x)
= 14 + 4x + 10 +4x
= 24 + 8x

Answer:

It takes 3.5 cups of pancake mix and 2.625 cups of water to make 21 pancakes.

Step-by-step explain

First divide each by 6 to figure out how much mix and water it takes to make one pancake

1/6 mix + .125 cups water = 1 pancake

Multiple each by 21 to know how much mix and water it takes to make 21 pancakes

3.5 mix + 2.625 water = 21 pancakes
