3/4

WIthout going to decimals, you must reduce the fraction. Divide by a common factor. 4 is the highest common factor:

12 / 4 = <u>3</u>

16 / 4 = 4

This means that the answer is 3/4. You could possibly further reduce it, but you will want to stay in integer levels.

Hope I could help! Let me know if there is anything else you need, and Brainliest is greatly appreciated :)

To divide fractions you flip the second one and then multiply the new fractions

9 16 9 5 45
--- ÷ ---- = ---- × ------ = ------
2 5 2 16 32

then simplify

45/32= 1 13/32

I hope I've helped!

F(x)=-9x^2-2x and g(x)=-3x^2+6x-9, find (f-g)(x) and (f-g)(-4)

Alona [7]

Answer:

(f - g)(x)= - 6 {x}^{2} - 8x + 9

(f - g)(-4!)= - 55

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = - 9 {x}^{2} - 2x, \: \: g(x) = - 3 {x}^{2} + 6x - 9 \\ (f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) \\ = - 9 {x}^{2} - 2x - (- 3 {x}^{2} + 6x - 9) \\ = - 9 {x}^{2} - 2x + 3 {x}^{2} - 6x + 9 \\ \purple{ \boxed{ \bold{(f - g)(x)= - 6 {x}^{2} - 8x + 9}}} \\ (f - g)( - 4)= - 6 {( -4 )}^{2} - 8( - 4) + 9 \\ = - 6 \times 16 + 32 + 9 \\ = - 96 + 41 \\ \red{ \boxed{ \bold{(f - g)( - 4)= - 55}}}$
