  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.

Additional comment

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).

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq

the function makes a strait line horizontally with no x intercept but a y intercept at 9.
