Harry makes no sense because 1/4 into a denominator of 8 is 2/8. So 2/8 + 1/8 is equal to 3/8 and Harry has done the equation wrong.

Harry is wrong and Jane is right because to add fractions they have to have a common denominator. Because 8 is a multiple of 4, 8 is the common denominator so....
1/4+1/8
To change 1/4 to have 8 as the denominator you have to multiply the top and bottom by 2.
1/4*2/2= 2/8.
2/8+1/8= 3/8

Hope this helps

Please help! Find the domain of y = 4 square root 4x + 2
olga55 [171]

Answer:

x ≥ -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that we cannot graph imaginary numbers. Therefore, our <em>x </em>value has to be greater than or equal to 0:

To find our domain, we need to set the square root equal to zero:

√(4x + 2) = 0

4x + 2 = 0

4x = -2

x = -1/2

We now know that no value below -1/2 can be used or we will get an imaginary number. Therefore, our answer is x ≥ -1/2

Alternatively, we can graph the function and analyze domain:
