First thing to do, when you have to add 2 fractions, you have to make both denominators equal. 14/6 = 0.84, so can't multiply or divide any fraction by a whole number to get the other denominator.
So, you multiply each fraction by the denominator of the other fraction. Which means that you multiply 5/14 by the denominator of 1/6 which is 6, and you multiply 1/6 by the denominator of 5/14 which is 14.
5/14 + 1/6 = 30/84 + 14/84
Then you join both fractions to make them under one denominator, since both denominators are equal.
30/84 + 14/84 = (30+14)/84 = 44/84.
Now, you need to simplify the fraction: you divide both numerator and denominator by 4:
44/84 = 11/21
So 5/14 + 1/6 = 11/21

Answer:
a = 1, b = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the right side and compare the coefficients of like terms on both sides, that is
right side
(x - a)² + b ← expand factor using FOIL
= x² - 2ax + a² + b
Compare to left side x² - 2x + 2
Compare the coefficients of the x- term
- 2a = - 2 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
a = 1
Compare the constant terms
a² + b = 2 ( substitute a = 1 )
1² + b = 2
1 + b = 2 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
b = 1
Thus a = 1, b = 1
