(4/(x+4-2))/x+1
4/(x+2)=x/4+1/2
(x/4+1/2)/x+1
x=-2/5
While you cannot solve 946x+642y=911 for numerical values of x and y, you can indeed solve 946x+642y=911 first for x and then for y:
-911 - 642y
For x: 946x+642y=911 becomes 946x = 911 - 642y, or x = ------------------
946
911-946x
For y: 946x+642y=911 becomes 642y = 911-946x, or y = ---------------
642
Integers are whole numbers that are either positive or negative. Operation of signs is important when dealing with integers.
In this case, -3 and -2 are integers that are being added.
if we add -3 by -2 we get -6 because when a negative number is added to a negative number the negative sign does not change
thus, (-3)-2 = -5
3(b+6) = 3*b + 3*6 = 3b + 18
