Answer: 1/12 of the cake.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of 3 and 4. The easiest way to do this is to multiply the two together. 3*4 = 12.

Now, convert each fraction to be out of twelfths. Do this by setting up a proportion. 2/3 = x/12. Cross multiply and divide. 2*12 = 24. 24/3 = 8. Therefore, 2/3 = 8/12.

Do the same for 1/4. 1/4 = x/12. Cross multiply and divide. 12*1 = 12. 12/4 = 3. Therefore, 1/4 = 3/12.

Now add these two fractions by adding the numerators and keeping the denominators the same. 8/12 + 3/12 = 11/12.

Subtract this answer from 1 (12/12). 12/12 - 11/12 = 1/12

Factor x 2 + 29x - 30.<br> (x + 15)(x - 2)<br> (x + 1)(x - 30)<br> (x - 1)(x + 30)
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is C) (x - 1)(x + 30)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we need to find factors of the last number (-30) that add up to the middle number (29). In order to do this, list out all of the factors of -30.

-1 and 30

1 and -30

2 and -15

-2 and 15

3 and -10

-3 and 10

Since -1 and 30 satisfy both of the parameters, we put them into their own parenthesis along with x.

(x - 1)(x + 30)
