Answer:
y=x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
if x: 5, x-2=3
y=x-2
therefore:
y=3
x=5
|a| = -a if a < 0
The absolute value and the opposite of rational number is equal when a number is negative.
Examples:
|-7| = - (-7) = 7
|-0.5| = - (-0.5) = 0.5
Answer:
12/16 and 5/16
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given two fractions with denominator 4 and 16.
To find the least common denominator, of 4 and 16.
Factorise 4 and 16.
4 = 2x2
16 = 2x2x2x2
i.e. 4 divides 16.
Hence Least common denominator = bigger number = 16
Make the given fractions to equivalent fractions with common denominator 16.
3/4 = 4(3)/4(4) = 12/16 and
5/16 = 1(5)/16(1)= 5/16
Hence answer would be
12/16 and 5/16
230
because 5x23 is 115 x 2 which is 230
I disagree. The first one is false. No exponent rules apply if the bases AND the exponents are different.
The second one is true. Bases are the sane so you add exponents. You get 3 to the -5 power. Written with positive exponents it’s 1/3 to the 5.
