How to subtract a negative fraction from a positive fraction?

Mathematics
1 answer:
ikadub [295]3 years ago
8 0
Let's take an example to illustrate this case:

<span>positive fraction = 2/7
</span>
<span>negative fraction = - 3/5

Now we need to subtract  </span><span>- 3/5 from 2/7

Right?

2/7 - (-3/5) = 2/7 + 3/5

here we need to unify the denominators as follows:

the lowest common factor between 7 and 5 is 35
2/7 = 10/35
3/5 = 21/35

Now back to </span><span>2/7 + 3/5:

</span><span><span>2/7 + 3/5 = 10/35 + 21/35 = (10+21)/35 = 31/35

That's it




Hope that helps you</span>

(d) If the perimeter of a rectangle is 32, then the length is 13 and the width is 3.
Stells [14]

Answer:

  • length = 10
  • width = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Any pair of dimensions that total 16 will give a rectangle with a perimeter of 32.

  P = 2(L +W)

  32 = 2(L +W)

  16 = L +W . . . . . . . divide by 2

__

This is true for L = 13 and W = 3. It is also true for L = 10 and W = 6, or any other pair of dimensions x and (16-x).

Evaluate the function below for x=3<br><br> f(x)=2x^3-x^2-4x+9
elixir [45]
Hello,

f(x)=2x^3-x^2-4x+9=(((0+2)x-1)x-4)x+9

f(3)=(((0+2)*3-1)*3-4)*3+9=((2*3-1)*3-4)-3+9=(5*3-4)*3+9=11*3+9=33+9=42

or

f(3)=2*3^3-3^2-4*3+9=2*27-9-12+9=54-12=42
