The subject is operations on rational expressions. The instructions are add or subtract the following expressions. Remember to find a common denominator when necessary. Reduce all answers to lowest terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

=

Now we have done the denominators of each term of the expression equal.

Further we add the terms,

=

=

=

Now factorize the numerator of the fraction.

4x² + 14x - 18 = 2(2x² + 7x - 9)

                     = 2(2x² + 9x - 2x - 9)

                     = 2[x(2x + 9) - 1(2x + 9)]

                     = 2(x - 1)(2x + 9)

Therefore, will be the answer.

first option

a function is a relation in which an input is paired with exactly one output.

so, let's find the right answer.

in our first option, our inputs are january, february, and march. the outputs are 30, 28, and 25. each input has it's own output. this is correct!

our second option we know is incorrect, because ms. valverade has two outputs, dogs and cats. this is not a function.

our third option is incorrect as well. the yellow square has two ouputs, the square and the triangle.

lastly, in our fourth option, we see the number 7 two times with a different output. therefore, this is not a function.

remember: each input must be paired with only one output!

no one knows lol
