2/3 ÷ (-5/6)

When dividing fractions, all you really have to do is multiply the first fraction by the second fraction's reciprocal.

Remember, a reciprocal is the fraction/whole number flipped.

Ex : 4/6 turns into 6/4

So, the reciprocal of -5/6 is -6/5

Therefore, our new equation looks like this :

2/3 × -6/5

Multiply the numerators with the numerators, and the denominators with the denominators :)

Numerators : 2 × -6 = -12

Denominators : 3 × 5 = 15

SO, our answer is -12/15

Simplify this.

-4/5

The length of a rectangular garden is 5 m longer than it's breadth. If it's perimeter is 150 m, find the area of the garden.​
jonny [76]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

L = B + 5

2L + 2B = 150

Substituting gives 2B + 2(B+5) = 150

4B = 140

B=35; L = 40

Area = B x L = 35 x 40 = 1400 m2

To decrease an amount by 8 percent, what single multiplier would you use?
Alchen [17]
That's far more problems than I usually accept in a single question, but since you're new and obviously a beginner, I'll try to help. 

<span>To Increase an amount by 7% what single multiplier would you use </span>
<span>We want 7% more than 100% of the amount, so the multiplier is </span>
<span>(100% + 7%) = 107% = 1.07 </span>
<span>[Remember that "percent" means "per hundred," so we divide a percentage by 100 to get the numerical equivalent.] </span>

<span>To Decrease an amount by 7% what single multiplier would you use </span>
<span>We want 7% less than 100% this time, so the multiplier is </span>
<span>(100% - 7%) = 93% = 0.93 </span>

<span>5 ÷ 0.1 </span>
<span>= 50 </span>

<span>(To One Decimal Place) (0.3 x 2.8)Squared </span>
<span>[Notation: around here we usually write "squared" as ^2, where the ^ is an exponentiation sign.] </span>
<span>(0.3 x 2.8)^2 = 0.84^2 = 0.7056 </span>
<span>which is 0.7 when rounded to one decimal place. </span>

<span>6.38 + 4.52 ÷ 4.71 +9.53 </span>
<span>= 6.38 + (4.52 ÷ 4.71) + 9.53 [assuming operations in the usual order] </span>
<span>= about 6.38 + 0.96 + 9.53 </span>
<span>= 16.87 </span>

<span>Expand and Simplify </span>
<span>(x + 2)(x + 3) </span>
<span>= x^2 + 2x + 3x + 6 </span>
<span>= x^2 + 5x + 6 </span>

<span>Expand and Simplify </span>
<span>(x + 2)(x - 3) </span>
<span>= x^2 + 2x - 3x - 6 </span>
<span>= x^2 - x - 6 </span>

<span>x + 1 < 5 </span>
<span>x < 4 [subtracting 1 from both sides] </span>

<span>Make n the subject of the formula.... M=3n </span>
<span>3n = M </span>
<span>n = M/3</span>

Is the equation linear 3y=20+x
Verizon [17]
The answer will be yes.

Why?

Well, you know that's it's a linear equation/ function if the exponents are only 1. And by looking at this equation you'll see that there are no exponents other than 1. So the answer is yes, it is a linear equation.

ILLLLLmark brainliest plssssssss heeeelpppp
exis [7]

Answer:

a) (x+2)^2-2

Step-by-step explanation:

write in form of x^2+2ax+a^2

2a=4

a=2

so

x^2+4x+2^2

we will now convert into the form:

x^2+2ax+a^2=(x+a)^2

substitute the values:

x^2+4x+2^2=(x+2)^2

(x+2)^2-2+2^2

(x+2)^2-2
