For question 13 ( operations ) you must do the brackets first, so you do 5+1 first which equals __ and then you divide the answer by 6.
The correct answer is B) -8.9%
The rate of change for any problem is always determined using the following equation.

In this case, the old value is 3.15 and the new value is 2.87. SO we use these in the equation to get the answer.



-.088889 * 100
-8.9%
ANSWER
The first three expressions will simplify to a rational answer.
EXPLANATION
Let us simplify the expressions then we can see which of them are rational.
A.

We multiply out the roots to get

This simplifies to


This is a rational number hence the answer is rational.
B.


This is also a rational solution.
C.


This one too is a rational solution.
D.


This is an irrational answer because √3 is an irrational number and multiplying a rational number, 4 by an irrational number results in an irrational number.
1. Consider right triangle ABK. The hypotenuse AB is 6 un. and the leg AK is 3 un. Since the leg is half of the hypotenuse, then the opposite to the leg angle is 30°. This means that m∠ABK=30°. Then m∠BAK=90°-30°=60°.
2. By the Pythagorean theorem,

3. Consider right triangle ABD. In this triangle AD is hypotenuse and m∠ADB=90°-m∠BAD=90°-60°=30°. Then the leg AB opposite to the angle 30° is half of the hypotenuse and AD=12 un.
4. The area of parallelogram is
