C. 8 23/24
One way you can solve this is by dividing 14 1/3 by 8, because it is the denominator of 5/8, then multiplying the quotient by 5, because it is the numerator of 5/8.

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sqrt{25-10\sqrt3+3}=5-\sqrt3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{25-10\sqrt3+3}=(*)\\\\25=5^2\\3=(\sqrt3)^2\\10\sqrt3=(2)(5)(\sqrt3)\\\\(*)=\sqrt{5^2-(2)(5)(\sqrt3)+(\sqrt3)^2}\\\\\text{use}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\=\sqrt{(5-\sqrt3)^2}\\\\\text{use}\ \sqrt{a^2}=|a|\\\\=|5-\sqrt3|=5-\sqrt3\\\\^{\text{because}\ 5>\sqrt3\to5-\sqrt3>0}$

Describe and correct the error a student made in writing an exponential function

NemiM [27]

Answer:

we CANNOT DIVIDE 3 with 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,as given in the question:

Starting value = 6

Constant ratio = 1/3

Now, exponential function is obtained by the product of starting value and the constant ratio repeatedly.

⇒ f(x) = (Starting value) x (ratio)... x times

$\implies f(x) = 6 (\frac{1}{3} )^x = 6 (\frac{1}{3} ) (\frac{1}{3} ) (\frac{1}{3} ) .... x$

Now, we CANNOT DIVIDE 3 with 6 as it is in the power of x.

Hence, $\implies f(x) = 6 (\frac{1}{3} )^x$ and $f(x) \neq 2^x$

HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

rewona [7]

Answer:

Considerations:

$$y=-(x) \left \{ {{\text{if } x0} \atop {{\text{if } x> 0\text{ then }y$

$y=x\left \{ {{\text{if } x0}} \right.$

Also,

$-\frac{a}{b}=\frac{-a}{b}=\frac{a}{-b}, b\neq0$

A positive number divided by a positive number results in a positive quotient, and its opposite is always negative.

The fraction $\frac{5}{-12}$ can be described as a positive number divided by a negative number, which always result in a negative quotient.

The fractions have same value, so Liam is correct.

Consider a circle whose size can vary. Let r represent the radius of the circle (in cm) and let C represent the circumference of

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

$g(C)=\frac{C}{2\pi}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r represent the radius of the circle (in cm) and

let C represent the circumference of the circle (in cm).

First solve the equation for 'r' using circumference formula

Circumference of circle formula is $C= 2\pi r$

Solve for r, divide both sides by 2pi

$r=\frac{C}{2\pi}$

the function g determines the radius of the circle in cm

So we replace 'r' with g(C), where C is the circumference

$g(C)=\frac{C}{2\pi}$
