The converted fractions are 3/12 and 5/12 and the sum is 2/3

<h3>How to convert the fractions?</h3>

From the question, the fractions are given as

1/4 and 5/12

The denominators of these fractions are

4 and 12

So. we start by calculating the LCD of the denominators

So, we have

4 = 2* 2

12 = 2 * 2 * 3

This gives

LCD = 2 * 2 * 3

Evaluate

LCD = 12

This means that the common denominator must be 12

So, we have

1/4 and 5/12

Multiply 1/4 by 3/3

This gives

3/12 and 5/12

When the fractions are added, we have

3/12 + 5/12 = (3 + 5)/12

Evaluate

3/12 + 5/12 = 8/12

Reduce fraction

3/12 + 5/12 = 2/3

Hence, the sum of the fractions is 2/3

Which represents a quadratic function ?
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

\boxed{\boxed{B.\ f(x)=\dfrac{3}{4}x^2+2x-5}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic function-

It is a function that can be represented by an equation of the form f = ax^2 + bx + c, where a\neq 0

In a quadratic function, the greatest power of the variable is 2.

As in the first option the highest power is 3, so it is not a quadratic function.

Even though the power of x is 2 in the third option, but as it is in the denominator, so the overall power of x becomes -2. Hence it is not a quadratic function.

As the coefficient of x^2 is 0 in case of fourth option, so it is not a quadratic function.

Equation in option 2 satisfies all the conditions of quadratic function, hence it is the quadratic function.

The model represents x2 – 9x + 14. An algebra tile configuration showing only the Product spot. 24 tiles are in the Product spot
klio [65]

I didn't get all the part with the tiles, but here's the general answer:

given a polynomial

p(x)=ax^2+bx+c

we have that x-k is a factor of p(x) if and only if k is a root of p(x), i.e. if

p(k)=ak^2+bk+c=0

So, given the polynomial

p(x)=x^2-9x+14

We can check if x-9 is a factor by evaluating p(9):

p(9)=81-81+14=14\neq 0

So, x-9 is not a factor.

Similarly, we can evaluate p(2),\ p(-5),\ p(-7) to check if x-2,\ x+5,\ x+7 are factors:

p(2)=4-18+14=0,\quad p(-5)=25+45+14=84\neq 0,\quad p(-7)=49+63+14=126 \neq 0

So, only x-2 is a factor of x^2-9x+14
