Simplify each term.

1/2X - 1/3Y

Combine 1/2x and −1/3y using a common denominator.

To write −1/3y as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by 2x/2x. 

(1 / 2x )(3y / 3y) + (−1 / 3y) (2x / 2x) 

Write each expression with a common denominator of 6xy, by
multiplying each by an appropriate factor of 1. 

1 (3y)/6xy − 1 (2x)/6xy 

Combine the numerators over the common denominator. 

1(3y) − (1(2x))/6xy

Simplify the numerator.

3y−(1(2x))/6xy

Which algebraic expression represents “twice the sum of y and 9”
tankabanditka [31]

To answer this question we will have to keep the following two points in mind:

#1. The <u>sum</u> of a number with another number means to <u>add </u>the given two numbers.

#2.<u> Twice</u> means to <u>multiply by 2.</u> In other words it means to double.

Therefore, "twice the sum" would mean to multiply the sum by 2.

Now, in our question we will have, "the sum of y and 9 would be: y+9 and twice this sum would be: 2(y+9)

Thus, "twice the sum of y and 9" is: 2(y+9)
