Answer:
2 is -1/3
3 is -6
4 is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2 is 7x + 8x = 3x - 4
3 is 5x + (-3) = 2x + (-15)
4 is -4x + 17 = 6x -3
Complete the equation of variation where y varies inversely as x and y = 0.125
when x=8
Answer:
6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 + (2/5 + 3/5)
solve for the bracket first
1/5 +(2+3/5)
1/5 + (5/5)
1/5 + 1
1+1*5/5
6/5
another method
1/5 + (2/5 +3/5)
open brackets)
1/5 + 2/5 + 3/5
since their denominator are same u can add their numerator
1+2+3/5
6/5
Let's take an example to illustrate this case:
<span>positive fraction = 2/7
</span>
<span>negative fraction = - 3/5
Now we need to subtract </span><span>- 3/5 from 2/7
Right?
2/7 - (-3/5) = 2/7 + 3/5
here we need to unify the denominators as follows:
the lowest common factor between 7 and 5 is 35
2/7 = 10/35
3/5 = 21/35
Now back to </span><span>2/7 + 3/5:
</span><span><span>2/7 + 3/5 = 10/35 + 21/35 = (10+21)/35 = 31/35
That's it
Hope that helps you</span>
