Answer: When we add or subtract rational numbers that have the same denominator, we add or subtract only the numerators. The denominators stay the same. When we add or subtract rational numbers with unlike denominators, we need to change the rational numbers to equivalent rational numbers that have the same denominators, before we find the sum or difference.

Answer:
1 .4x2-9= 2x+3,2x-3
2 .16x2-1=4x-1,4x+1
3 .16x2-4=4(2x+1)(2x-1)
4 .4x2-1=(2x+1)(2x-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
16x² − 1 = (4x − 1)(4x + 1) ; 16x² − 4 = 4(2x + 1)(2x − 1); 4x² − 1 = (2x + 1)(2x − 1) ;
4x² − 9 = (2x + 3)(2x − 3)
16x² − 1 is the difference of squares. This is because 16x² is a perfect square, as is 1. To find the factors of the difference of squares, take the square root of each square; one factor will be the sum of these and the other will be the difference.
The square root of 16x² is 4x and the square root of 1 is 1; this gives us (4x-1)(4x+1).
16x² − 4 is also the difference of squares. The difference of 16x² is 4x and the square root of 4 is 2; this gives us (4x-2)(4x+2). However, we can also factor a 2 out of each of these binomials; this gives us
2(2x-1)(2)(2x+1) = 2(2)(2x-1)(2x+1) = 4(2x-1)(2x+1)
4x² − 1 is also the difference of squares. The square root of 4x² is 2x and the square root of 1 is 1; this gives us (2x-1)(2x+1).
4x² − 9 is also the difference of squares. The square root of 4x² is 2x and the square root of 9 is 3; this gives us (2x-3)(2x+3).

Answer:
Option B. minimum is correct for the first blank
Option C. 6 is correct for second blank.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the maxima or minima of a function, we have to take the first derivative and then put it equal to zero to find the critical values.
Given function is:
Taking first derivative
Now the first derivative has to be put equal to zero to find the critical value
The function has only one critical value which is 5.
Taking 2nd derivative
As the value of 2nd derivative is positive for the critical value 5, this means that the function has a minimum value at x = 5
The value can be found out by putting x=5 in the function
Hence,
<u>The function y = x 2 - 10x + 31 has a minimum value of 6</u>
Hence,
Option B. minimum is correct for the first blank
Option C. 6 is correct for second blank.
