Given expression: 
We need to add the given rational expressions.
First step: Combined like terms in the numerator and kept the common denominator.
Second step they applied : Canceling the like term x^2 and got 
Note: We can't cancel like terms in top and bottom like this.
We can cancel out common factors in top an bottom.
<h3>Therefore, Micah did not add the expressions correctly.</h3>

Answer:
$496, 000
Step-by-step explanation:
2021 is 11 years since 2010, hence t = 11
Substitute t = 11 into the equation
p = (1.95 × 11²) + (12.25 × 11) + 125
= 235.95 + 134.75 + 125
= 495.7 ( thousands of dollars ), thus the best estimate is
p = $ 496, 000
You can write it just as given:
... (time spent in video games)/(time spent in television) = (10 minutes)/(1 hour)
However, the intent is to end with a pure number (no units), so we need to convert hours to minutes or vice versa. Most folks know that 1 hour is 60 minutes, so that is probably the easier conversion.
... = (10 minutes)/(60 minutes)
... = 10/60 . . . . . . . . . the units in numerator and denominator are the same, so cancel
... = 1/6 . . . . . . . . . . . .the fraction is reduced in the usual way
The ratio in simplest form is 1/6.
