Answer:

(x-y)

Step-by-step explanation:

convert the numerator and denominator so they can be written as single fractions.. (x/y) -(y/x) = (x/y)*(x/x) - (y/x)*(y/y) = (x^2 -y^2) / (xy) ; now the denominator (1/y)*(x/x) + (1/x)*(y/y) = (x+y)/ (xy) ; now remember that dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal so your problem now becomes [(x^2 -y^2)/(xy)] * [(xy)/(x+y)] = (x^2-y^2) / (x+y) = [(x+y)(x-y)]/(x+y) = final answer (x-y)

What is the area of a rectangle with vertices (-8, -2), (-3,-2), (-3,-6), and (-8,-6)?
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The area of the rectangle is 20 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Through the x values of the ordered pairs, we can see that the length of the rectangle is 5

-3-(-8)=5

Through the y-values of the ordered pairs, we can see that the width of the rectangle is 4

-2-(-6)=4

The area can be found by multiplying the length and width, so this means

(5)(4)=20
