What is the product of −2 1/4 and −4 1/2 ?

1 answer:

4 0

To multiply fracti0ons, we need to convert them to improper fractions:

-2 1/4 = -9/4
-4 1/2 = -9/2

Now, lets multiply:

-9/4 * -9/2 = 81/8

Hope this helps!

Take note that the answer is positive because when multiplying, two negatives make a positive.

How do you solve 3x+7=x

vredina [299]

3x + 7 = x

First, subtract 3x from both sides. / Your problem should look like: 7 = x - 3x
Second, simplify x - 3x to -2x. / Your problem should look like: 7 = -2x
Third, divide both sides by -2. / Your problem should look like: $\frac{7}{-2}$ = x
Fourth, simplify $\frac{7}{-2}$ to $-\frac{7}{2}$ / Your problem should look like: $- \frac{7}{2}$ = x
Fifth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: x = $-\frac{7}{2}$

Answer as fraction: $-\frac{7}{2}$
Answer as decimal: -3.5

I need help on this?!

Sergio039 [100]

If you nee solving it will be:
c^6(-3c^5)^2
c^6(3c^5)^2
c^6·3^2(c^5)^2
c^6·9(c^5)^2
c^6·9c^10
9c^6c^10
9c^6+10
9c^16
So the answer is:
9c^16
(9c to the power of 16)

Please help with this inequality.

iren [92.7K]

44 $\geq$ -3x + 2 > 14.
-2 -2 -2

42 $\geq$ -3x > 12
-------------------------------------
-3 -3 -3 (dividing with inequalities by a negative flips the inequality symbol)

-14 $\leq$ x < -4
