Calculate and multiply to get
-4/(-6)+7 - 2x(-2)/-1x3+7
Next remove parentheses and calculate,
You'll get -4/-6+7 - 2x(-2)/4
Then calculate and reduce,
-4/1 - -2/2
Reduce and divide to get -4-(-1)
Remove parentheses, -4+1
And calculate to get your final answer
= -3
Answer:
a = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for a:
2 (a + 5) - 1 = 3
Hint: | Distribute 2 over a + 5.
2 (a + 5) = 2 a + 10:
(2 a + 10) - 1 = 3
Hint: | Group like terms in 2 a - 1 + 10.
Grouping like terms, 2 a - 1 + 10 = 2 a + (10 - 1):
(2 a + (10 - 1)) = 3
Hint: | Evaluate 10 - 1.
10 - 1 = 9:
2 a + 9 = 3
Hint: | Isolate terms with a to the left hand side.
Subtract 9 from both sides:
2 a + (9 - 9) = 3 - 9
Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.
9 - 9 = 0:
2 a = 3 - 9
Hint: | Evaluate 3 - 9.
3 - 9 = -6:
2 a = -6
Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.
Divide both sides of 2 a = -6 by 2:
(2 a)/2 = (-6)/2
Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.
2/2 = 1:
a = (-6)/2
Hint: | Reduce (-6)/2 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of -6 and 2.
The gcd of -6 and 2 is 2, so (-6)/2 = (2 (-3))/(2×1) = 2/2×-3 = -3:
Answer: a = -3
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
if x=23, 23-7=16
Answer:
4 2/7 - 6/7 = 24/
7
= 3 3/
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Conversion a mixed number 4 2/
7
to a improper fraction: 4 2/7 = 4 2/
7
= 4 · 7 + 2/
7
= 28 + 2/
7
= 30/
7
To find a new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number 4 by the denominator 7. Whole number 4 equally 4 * 7/
7
= 28/
7
b) Add the answer from previous step 28 to the numerator 2. New numerator is 28 + 2 = 30
c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 30) over the denominator 7.
Four and two sevenths is thirty sevenths
Subtract: 30/
7
- 6/
7
= 30 - 6/
7
= 24/
7
For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(7, 7) = 7. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 7 × 7 = 49. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.
In other words - thirty sevenths minus six sevenths = twenty-four sevenths.
