We have the number here are 3 3/8 and 2 1/6
by using the first method,
multiplying 3/8 with 3/3 and 1/6 with 4/4 we get 9/24 and 4/24 so,
3 9/24 + 2 4/24 = (3+2) and (9/24 + 4/24)
when adding 3 and 2 we get 5 and adding 9/24 and 4/24 we get 13/24
so the answer is 5 and 13/24
You would 4 to both sides of the equation
Option two is the correct answer
Hope this helps :)
First you raise the expressions in the parentheses to their powers. Then multiply the two expressions together. You get to see multiplying exponents (raising a power to a power) and adding exponents (multiplying same bases).
X² - 6x - 9 = 0
x² - 3x - 3x - 9 = 0
x (x-3) -3(x + 3) = 0
(x - 3)² = 0
In short, Your Answer would be Option A
Hope this helps!
