Answer:

a)2/7

b)41/48

Step-by-step explanation:

-Question A-

1) Rephrase the problem to look like this:

3/7*28/15*5/14 <-- when dividing fractions you actually multiply by the reciprocal (opposite)

2) Multiply across the above phrase:

420/1470

3) Simplify your fraction:

2/7

There is nothing else to be done with 2/7 and thus it is your final answer.

-Question B-

1) Get the denominator of all 3 fractions to the same Least Common Denominator (48):

42/48 + 3/48 - 4/48

2) Do the arithmetic in the phrase above:

41/48

41/48 cannot be simplified and thus is your final answer

Answer:

Hi! I can't really see the graphs on the picture but i can tell you what it should looks like, The graph opens up which means it makes a U shape and The vertex is (- $\frac{9}{4}$ , - $\frac{185}{4}$ ) the Axis of Symmetry is x = - $\frac{9}{4}$ and, if you can find all those points in your graph then you'll get 100% i'm sorry that i can't see the picture but i can see the shape but i also need to see the Units.
