Well to find this answer, we will have to find a common denominator for each fraction so it will be easier to subtract.
9 is a common denominator for both numbers since both denominators, 9 and 3, can go into 9. We don't have to change 2/9, but we will have to change 1/3.
Multiply 1 and 3 by 3 to get our new fraction 3/9.
2/9-3/9= -1/9
So our answer would be - 1/9. Hope I helped!

Y varies inversely with x. When x = 3 then y = 5. Write an equation to represent this relationship.
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y ∞ 1/x

y = k/x

Where k is the constant of proportionality

When x = 3 and y = 5

5 = k/3

Cross multiply

k = 5×3

k = 15

The equation is y = 15/x

Factor this polynomial. -3x^2-5x-2
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

-(3x+2)(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets factor the trinomial -3x^2-5x-2 step-by-step:

Step 1. Since all the terms are negative, we can factor -1 out

-3x^2-5x-2=-1(3x^2+5x+2)

Step 2. Split the middle term of 3x^2+5x+2

5x=3x+2x, so 3^2+5x+2=3x^{2} +3x+2x+2

Step 3. Group common terms

(3x^2+2x)+(3x+2)

Step 4. Factor each parentheses

x(3x+2)+(3x+2)

Step 5. Factor the common binomial

(3x+2)(x+1)

Now, we can put it all together:

-3x^2-5x-2=-(3x+2)(x+1)
