Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are subtracting a negative which is the same as adding.  Our equation becomes -1/3+1/2.  To add fractions we need a common denominator (the denominator of a fraction is the number on the bottom)  To fine the least common denominator we need to find the lowest number that both 3 and 2 go into which is 6.  Then we will multiply each fraction by the number that will give us 6 for a denominator which is 2 for -1/3 and 3 for 1/2.  So -1/3 times 2 is -2/6 and 1/2 times 3 is 3/6.  Our equation is now -2/6+3/6.  Now we will add the numerators ( the numerator is the number on the top of the fraction) and the denominators stay the same when adding or subtraction fractions -2/6+3/6=1/6

I hope this helps and please let me know if there is anything you are confused about or is still unclear, I will be happy to help!

Its not too hard but can someone explain this to me?

Answer:

B. No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

If you try to simplify it, you get

2x-2x = -5-5 or

0 = -10

Which will not be true for any value of x.

If you would draw the lines y = 2x+5 and y=2x-5, you'd see two parallel lines that never intersect. The intersection would be the solution, but, it never happens.

Find the
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

54 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of an equilateral triangle is

A = \frac{s^2\sqrt{3} }{4}  ( s is the side length ) then

\frac{s^2\sqrt{3} }{4} = 81\sqrt{3} ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )

s²\sqrt{3} = 324\sqrt{3} ( divide both sides by \sqrt{3} )

s² = 324 ( take the square root of both sides )

s = \sqrt{324} = 18

Thus

perimeter = 3 × 18 = 54 cm
