Simplify 2/8
2/8=1/4

1/4 of all pizzas=1 and 1/2 pizza
convert to improper
1 and 1/2=1+1/2=2/2+1/2=3/2
1/4 of all pizzas=3/2 pizza
times both sides by 4/1
4/4 of all pizzas=12/2 pizza
all pizzas=6pizza


6pizzas were orderd

Subtract 3/y-2 - 1/y+3
Helen [10]
To subtract fractions, we need a common denominator.

\frac{3}{y-2} - \frac{1}{y+3}

the common denominator will be (y-2)(y+3)

\frac{3(y+3)-1(y-2)}{(y-2)(y+3)}
\frac{3y + 9 - y + 2}{(y-2)(y+3)}
\frac{2y + 11}{(y-2)(y+3)}

The answer above will be the simplified form.

The difference of two numbers is 16 the greater number is five less than four times a small number find the two numbers
Elis [28]

Answer:

The numbers are 23 and 7  

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Set up the equations

   Let x = the greater number

  and y = the smaller number. Then

(1) x - y = 16

       4y = 4 times the smaller number and

  4y - 5 = 5 less than 4 times the smaller number. Then

(2)     x = 4y - 5

You have a system of two equations:

\begin{cases}(1) & x - y = 16\\(2) & x = 4y - 5\end{cases}

2. Solve the equations

\begin{array}{lrcll}(3) & 4y - 5 - y & = & 16 &\text{Substituted (2) into (1)}\\& 3y - 5 & = & 16 &\text{Simplified}\\ & 3y & = & 21 &\text{Added 5 to each side}\\(4) &y & = & \mathbf{7} &\text{Divided each side by 3} \\& x - 7 & = & 16 & \text{Substituted (4) into (1)}\\& x& = & \mathbf{23} & \text{Added 7 to each side}\\\end{array}

The larger number is 23; the smaller number is 7.

3. Check

\begin{array}{rclcrcl}23 - 7& = & 16 & \qquad &23&=&4(7) - 5\\16 & = & 16 & \qquad &23& = &28 - 5\\&&& \qquad &23& = &23\\\end{array}

OK.
