So she starts out with -1 dollars. Then she borrows 4 more and gets to -5 dollars. If she pays him back 3 dollars, she is left still owing him 2 dollars as her balance is at -2 dollars.
-1 - 4 + 3 = x
X = -2
We can use pythagorean theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
4 + 9 = c^2
13 = c^2
sqrt of 13 = c
Hope this helps!
6x+1 / 2x +6 - 5/2
Factor 2 out of the denominator of the first fraction:
6x+1 / 2(x+3) - 5/2
Rewrite 5/2 to have a common denominator with the first fraction:
6x+1/2(x+3) - 5(x+3) / 2(x+3)
Simplify terms:
6x +1 - 5(x+3) / 2(x+3)
Use distributive property:
6x +1 - 5x -15 / 2(x+3)
Combine like terms for final answer:
(x-14) / 2(x+3)
