Given expression: \frac{3x^2-x-9}{x^2+3x+2}+\frac{-2x^2+2x+5}{x^2+3x+2}


We need to add the given rational expressions.


First step: Combined like terms in the numerator and kept the common denominator.


\frac{3x^2-x-9-2x^2+2x+5}{x^2+3x+2} =\frac{x^2+x-4}{x^2+3x+2}


Second step they applied : Canceling the like term x^2 and got \frac{x-4}{3x+2}.

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>

How would you convert #11?
nekit [7.7K]

The prefix 'd' stands for "deci-", which is a multiplier of 1/10. This 1 dL is 1/10 of a liter. Hence

  • 1 L = 10 dL

Multiply this equation by 6.88, and you get

  • 6.88 L = 68.8 dL
