To first find the answer to this, let's find a common denominator between each fraction. The denominator is the bottom number of a fraction.
To find the common denominator, let's factor out each of our denominators 5 times to see if they have a common number.
4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20
2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10
They both appear to have the smallest common denominator of 4, so let's use 4.
We already have 1/4 with a denominator of 4, but not 1/2.
2 x 2 = 4, so multiply the numerator and the denominator of 1/2 by 2.
1 x 2 = 2
2 x 2 = 4
Your new fraction is 2/4.
Our expression now is:
-2 1/4 + 5 2/4
or (in simpler terms)
5 2/4 - 2 1/4
Subtract the fractions first.
2/4 - 1/4 = 1/4
Now subtract the whole numbers.
5 - 2 = 3
You are left with:
3 1/4
I hope this helps!
Answer:
Can't tell if it went through...
1. Shop A = 2x
2. Shop B = 2x - 580
3. Total = Shop A + Shop B
1949 = 2x + 2x - 580
4. Combine like terms
2x + 2x = 4x
1949 = 4x - 580
5. Add 580 to both sides (to remove -580 from right side)
1949 + 580 = 4x - 580 + 580
2529 = 4x
6. Divide both sides by 4 (to get x)
2529 / 4 = 4x / 4
632.25 = x
7. Shop A = 2x
2 * 632.25 = 1264.50
Shop A = 1264.50
8. Shop B = 2x - 580
2 * 632.25 - 580 = 684.50
Shop B = 684.50
Check: Shop A + Shop B = 1949
1264.50 + 684.50 = 1949
Shop A = 1264.50
Shop B = 684.50

Answer: 6144m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The polynomial function is
To find:
The possible roots of the given polynomial using rational root theorem.
Solution:
According to the rational root theorem, all the rational roots and in the form of 
, where, p is a factor of constant and q is the factor of leading coefficient.
We have,
Here, the constant term is 10 and the leading coefficient is 4.
Factors of constant term 10 are ±1, ±2, ±5, ±10.
Factors of leading term 4 are ±1, ±2, ±4.
Using rational root theorem, the possible rational roots are
Therefore, the correct options are A, C, D, F.
