Saved a checkpoint:
It looks like parts e and f had some constant coefficients in the advice which weren't present in the actual question, so I've removed those.
Otherwise, this looks good!
Christian Lawson-Perfect on Using Surds, Rationalising the Denominator 8 years, 5 months ago
Gave some feedback: Ready to use

Saved a checkpoint:
I changed the denominators for parts f,g and h from number entry to mathematical expression. While the answer is always a number, a student who's misunderstood might want to write a surd. You should let them fail!
I don't know why each line of the derivations ended with a comma, but this isn't conventional.
With those things fixed, this is a good question.

I've fixed a lot of typos, but otherwise this looks good!

Looks good!
Christian Lawson-Perfect on Substitute values into formulas 8 years, 5 months ago
Gave some feedback: Ready to use
Christian Lawson-Perfect on Substitute values into formulas 8 years, 5 months ago
Saved a checkpoint:
Part c was wrong in a few ways! Given the formula for converting from Celsius into Fahrenheit, it asked the student to convert a temperature in Celsius into Fahrenheit - the other way round. It looks like your definition of the variable T_F was also wrong.
I've fixed those, and the rest of the question looks good.
