Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 and 1/6 are fractions.

As we directly can't add fractions whenever denominators are different, so we will have to find out the Least common multiple of 4 and 6.

The LCM Of 4&6 will be 12, so we will write 12 instead of 4&6.

Now, 4*3=12, that is why we will have to multiply the numerator and denominator with 3.

1*3/4*3 = 3/12

Same thing applies to 1/6. In order to get 12 in the denominator we need to multiply 2 with numerator and denominator both.

1*2/6*2= 2/12

However, we have two new fractions with same denominator now, that is 3/12 and 2/12

We can directly add the numerators now, as we have the same denominator. So 3+2/12= 5/12 would be my final answer. (addition of like fractions)

5/12

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the easiest way to go about this is to choose on of the answers and fill it in to see if it's correct. Since you only have 4 possible answers, there's no need to actually solve this.

In the question it already tells us that x does not equal 0, so that answer is automatically not correct. Now your down to three possible answers.

Start with -3. First, fill in the x with -3 for what the equation is supposed to equal. That gives you 3/-3. Simplified, that is -1. Now put -3 in for the x in the equation. That gives you 3/2(-3) + 1/2. After running that through your calculator or solving it, you end up with 0. So -3 is not your answer.

Next we'll try the 2. Do as we did last time, and fill in the x on the answer part of the equation. You now have 3/2. That doesn't simplify so it stays as is. Now for the equation. That makes it 3/2(2) +1/2. Put that in your calculator or solve, and you get 5/4. 5/4 does not equal 3/2 so 2 is not your answer.

That leaves 3. You can go ahead and run through the steps above using 3 if you want to double check, but since it's the only answer left, there isn't really a need to.

Hope this helps :)

A. x-int:-0.5,y-int:1<br>B. x-int:0.5,y-int:1<br>C. x-int:-0.5,y-int:-1<br>D. x-int:1,y-int:0.5

The correct answer is:  [D]:  " <span>x-int : 1 ,  y-int:  0.5  " .
_____________________________________________________
Note:
_____________________________________________________
The "x-intercept" refers to the point(s) at which the the graph of a function (which is a "line", in this case) cross(es) the "y-axis".  

In other words, what is (are) the point(s) of the graph at which "x = 0<span>" ?
</span>
By examining the graph, we see that when " x = 0" ; y is equal to:  "1<span>" .
</span>
So; the "x-intercept" is at point:  "(0, 1)" ; or, we can simply say that the 
   "x-intercept" is:  "1" .
