9514 1404 393

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.

  \displaystyle\frac{\sqrt{12}}{\sqrt{3}+3}=\frac{\sqrt{12}}{(\sqrt{3}+3)}\cdot\frac{(\sqrt{3}-3)}{(\sqrt{3}-3)}=\frac{\sqrt{36}-3\sqrt{12}}{3-9}\\\\=\frac{6-3\cdot2\sqrt{3}}{-6}=\boxed{-1+\sqrt{3}}

_____

<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).

Name a pair of corresponding angles
Gnoma [55]
<h3>Corresponding angles = angle 1 and angle 5</h3>

They are on the same side of the transversal cut (both to the left of the transversal) and they are both above the two black lines. It might help to make those two black lines to be parallel, though this is optional.

Other pairs of corresponding angles could be:

  • angle 2 and angle 6
  • angle 3 and angle 7
  • angle 4 and angle 8

=======================================================

<h3>Alternate interior angles = angle 3 and angle 5</h3>

They are between the black lines, so they are interior angles. They are on alternate sides of the blue transversal, making them alternate interior angles.

The other pair of alternate interior angles is angle 4 and angle 6.

=======================================================

<h3>Alternate exterior angles = angle 1 and angle 7</h3>

Similar to alternate interior angles, but now we're outside the black lines. The other pair of alternate exterior angles is angle 2 and angle 8

=======================================================

<h3>Same-side interior angles = angle 3 and angle 6</h3>

The other pair of same-side interior angles is angle 4 and angle 5. They are interior angles, and they are on the same side of the transversal.

if zamzam can sell 1 liter of camel milk for $1 and Jasmin herd produces 400 liters per day how much money could zamzam make per
nalin [4]

Answer:

Zamzam could make $400 per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Zamzam can sell 1 liter of camel milk for $1.

Jasmin herd produces 400 liters per day.

Now, to find the money Zamzam could make per day.

By multiplying we get the money zamzam could make:

<em>If cost of 1 liter milk = $1.</em>

<em>Then cost of 400 liters milk = $1 × 400.</em>

                                              =  $400.

Therefore, zamzam could make $400 per day.
