Answer:

  x less 16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

"x -16.5" means 16.5 is subtracted from x. The resulting value is 16.5 less than x. The wording "x less 16.5" basically means "x minus 16.5" and/or "x reduced by 16.5".

__

Subtraction is not commutative, so "16.5 decreased (or reduced) by x", meaning "16.5 -x" or "16.5 minus x", is not the same thing.

Blizzard [7]
Lowest Common Denominator refers to lowes t common multiple. These expressions have two terms 'x' and 'y' and we want to choose the expression that has the highest power such that the other expressions can be multiplied into the common denominator.

For the 'x' term, the highest power is x⁴ and for the 'y' term, the highest power is y⁵

Common denominator of A, B, C, and D: x⁴y⁵

A new operation is defined by a△b=a^2-b/b-a^2. 4△3.
dmitriy555 [2]

As the new mathematical operation is defined by a△b=a^2-b/b-a^2, the value of 4△3 using the same operation will be 4△3 = -1

As per the question statement, we are given a new mathematical operation a△b=a^2-b/b-a^2 and we are supposed to find the value of 4△3 using the same operation.

Given, a△b=a^2-b/b-a^2

now 4△3 = (4^2-3) / (3-4^2)  

4△3 = (16-3) / (3-16)        

4△3 = 13 / -13  

4△3 = -1

Hence, as the new mathematical operation is defined by a△b=a^2-b/b-a^2, the value of 4△3 using the same operation will be 4△3 = -1.

  • Mathematical operation: An operator in mathematics is often a mapping or function that transforms components of one space into elements of another.
