Simplify negative 5 and 1 over 6 − negative 8 and 1 over 2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tomtit [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is;

17/6 <em><u>OR</u></em> 2 & 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

(-5+1)/6 - (-8+1)/2

First, simplify in parentheses!

-4/6 - -7/2

Next, change the symbol of 7/2 because two negatives make a positive!

-4/6 +7/2

Next, change the denominators so they both have the same

-4/6 + 7/2

× 3/3

-4/6 + 21/6

Simplify!

17/6

<u>OR</u>

2 & 5/6

Hope this helps

Answer: The formula is PI * RADUIS²
So, multiplying the radius by itself is 1, and then multiplying 1 by PI is the same as 3.14 .

tammy typed 40 pages of a report on Monday and 3/8 of the report on Tuesday. She completed the remaining 1/3 of the report on We
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

R = report length

R = 40 + (3/8)R + (1/3)R

3/8 = 3*3/8*3 = 9/24

1/3 = 8*1 / 3*8 = 8/34

R = 40 + (9/24)R + (8/24)R

R = 40 + (17/24)R                         Subtract 17/24 from the left

R-17/24 R = 40

7/24 R = 40                                  Multiply both sides by 24

7R = 40 * 24

7R = 960                                       Divide by 7

R  = 960/7

R = 137.1 which breaks the rounding rule and becomes 138 because something has to be typed on page 138

How do you use the properties of exponents and logarithms to rewrite functions in equivalent forms and solve equations
Leona [35]
Exponential:
 
It is called the exponential function of base a, to that whose generic form is f (x) = a ^ x, being a positive number other than 1.
 Every exponential function of the form f (x) = a^x, complies with the followingProperties:
 1. The function applied to the zero value is always equal to 1: f (0) = a ^ 0  = 1
 2. The exponential function of 1 is always equal to the base: f (1) = a ^ 1  = a.
 3. The exponential function of a sum of values is equal to the product of the application of said function on each value separately.
 f (m + n) = a ^ (m + n) = a ^ m · a ^ n
 = f (m) · f (n).
 4. The exponential function of a subtraction is equal to the quotient of its application to the minuend divided by the application to the subtrahend:
 f (p - q) = a ^ (p - q) = a ^ p / a ^ q
 Logarithm:
 
In the loga (b), a is called the base of the logarithm and b is called an argument, with a and b positive.
 Therefore, the definition of logarithm is:
 loga b = n ---> a ^ n = b (a> 0, b> 0)
