Alright, so the first thing I would do is find the LCM of the dividends, which is 20. So we have 10 15/20 and 6 16/20. You can either leave it there and just carry the one (20 in this case) for 3 19/20.
If you multiply 10 by 20 and add 15, or 6 by 20 and add 16 (which I think is easier) you get 215/20 - 136/20 = 79/20. It can be simplified from here if you teacher wants it in the future.
Step-by-step explanation:
the set builder form for [6,7,8,9, ....] is given as:
Answer:
-20n/3n
Step-by-step explanation:
-4 1
--- / ---
9n 15n
Keep, change, flip
- Keep the -4/9n
- Change the division sign to a multiplication sign
- Flip the 1/15n to 15n/1
-4 15n
--- * ---
9n 1
Cross simplify.
9n divided by 3 is 3n.
15n divided by 3 is 5n.
-4 5n
--- * ---
3n 1
-4 times 5n equals -20n
3n times 1 equals 3n
-20n
---
3n
Let x be the original position.
After the first play they gain 9 yards. The position can be represented by
x + 9
After the second play they lose 22 yards. The position can be represented by
x + 9 - 22 = x - 13
Therefore, in total they lost 13 yards.
