Rational Numbers
A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers.

The number 8 is a rational number because it can be written as the fraction 8/1.
Likewise, 3/4 is a rational number because it can be written as a fraction.
Even a big, clunky fraction like 7,324,908/56,003,492 is rational, simply because it can be written as a fraction.
Every whole number is a rational number, because any whole number can be written as a fraction. For example, 4 can be written as 4/1, 65 can be written as 65/1, and 3,867 can be written as 3,867/1.

Anyone know how to simplify a whole number into a mixed number or a improper fraction???
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Example any whole number over one would be an improper fraction, so 2=2/1, something like 5/3=1 2/3 would be a mixed number, subtract the numerator by the denominator, how ever many times you can subtract is the whole number and the amount remaining is the numerator, keep the same denominator,,, hope that makes sense

Jenny thinks that the expression below is equal to x²-4. If you agree, show that she is correct. If you disagree, show that she
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Jenny is wrong the correct answer is x²+ 4 - 4 x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

(x-2)³∕x-2

(x-2)³∕(x-2) =(x-2) (x-2)²∕(x-2)

(x-2)³∕(x-2) = (x-2)²

As we know that

(a-b)² = a²+b² - 2 ab

So

(x-2)² = x²+ 2² - 2 ˣ 2 ˣ x =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

(x-2)² =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

It means that

(x-2)³∕(x-2) = (x-2)² =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

So Jenny is wrong the correct answer is x²+ 4 - 4 x.

Ok, so we see in
y=a(x-h)^2+k
vertex is (h,k)
vertex is highest or lowest point
on one side, it goes up and other side it goes down

if a is positive, then it goes down then up
if a is negative, it goes up then down

we see
f(x)=2(x+3)^2+2
2 is positive
goes down then up
vertex is (-3,2)

so decreases from -infinity to -3 or ininterval
(-infinity,-3)

answer is first option
