How to simplify -(-7y+12)

1 answer:

7 0

-(-7y + 12) = 7y - 12
u are distributing the -sign through the parenthesis...so u take the number outside of the parenthesis (and if it just a sign, the number is 1)...and u multiply it by everything in the parenthesis.
-1(-7y + 12) = -1 * -7y + (-1) * 12 = 7y + (-12) = 7y - 12

1/2 - 3/4 equals what

n200080 [17]

1. Method 1: By Listing MultiplesList out all multiples of each denominator, and find the first common one.

2: 2 , 4

4: 4
Therefore, the LCD is 4

Method 2: By Prime FactorsList all prime factors of each denominator, and find the union of these primes.
Therefore, the LCD is 2 x 2 = 4

2. Make the denominators the same as the LCD

 $\frac{1 x 2}{2 x 2} - \frac{3}{4}$

3. Simplify. Denominators are now the same.

 $\frac{2}{4} - \frac{3}{4}$

4. Join the denominators

$\frac{2-3}{4}$

5. Simplify

 $-\frac{1}{4}$

Done! :) Decimal Form: -0.25

Please help with this math problem for trig. A 6 m ladder is leaning against a wall. The base of the ladder is 1.5 m from the wa

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

a = 5.81 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where b= 1.5 and c= 6

a^2 +1.5^2 = 6^2

a^2 +2.25 = 36

Subtract 2.25 from each side

a^2 +2.25-2.25 = 36-2.25

a^2 = 33.75

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(33.75)

a = 5.809475019

We only take the positive root because length must be positive
