Forget about the negative sign. First you have to find a least common denominator. This would be 63. Since we had to multiply 9 by 7 to get 63 we have to multiply the numerator (4) by 7. This gives us a new fraction of 36/63. Since we ha e to multiply 21 by 3 to get 63 we have to multiply 19 by 3. This gives us 57. So now we have 36/63 and 57/63. Then we add the negative sign back in making 57/63 -57/63. Now we add them together. Because one has a negative sign and one is positive the number has to be closer to zero. So the answer is -21/63.
Answer:
16/24
Step-by-step explanation:
9/12–> simplify to 3/4
3/4=15/20
24/32=3/4
6/8=3/4
16/24 is not equal
1 ton is equivalent to 2000 pounds
we have to find how many pounds 3 3/8 tons are equal to
if 1 ton --> 2000 pounds
we can break down the fraction into 3 + 3/8
then 3 tons --> 2000 x 3 = 6000 pounds
3/8 ton ---> 2000 x 3/8 = 
after adding 6000 + 750 = 6750 pounds
answer is 6750 pounds
Answer:
For the first 30 minutes, we will have a line with a given steepness, this will represent the 30 minutes riding at a fast pace.
Then he stops for 20 minutes, we will represent this with a constant line.
Then he again moves for another 30 minutes, but with a slower pace than in the first 30 minutes, then this line will be less steep than the first line.
A sketch of this situation can be seen below.
