Answer:

-11/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to solve 5/12 - 7/8 we need to find the LCM.

12 - 12, 24, 36, 48

8 - 8, 16, 24, 32, 40

So the LCM is <u>24.</u>

Meaning we need to make both denominators 24.

12*2 = 24 5*2 = 10

<u>10/24</u>

8*3 = 24 7*3 = 21

<u>21/24</u>

<u />

10/24 - 21/24

= -11/24

<em>Thus,</em>

<em>the answer is -11/24.</em>

<em />

<em>Hope this helps :)</em>

Does the point (6,3) satisfy the equation y = 4(x – 5)?
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

plug (6,3) into the given equation to find out

3 = 4(6-5)

3 = 4(1)

3 = 4

since 3 does not equal 4, the point (6,3) does not satisfy the equation y=4(x-5)
