Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(-8+-\frac{8}{11} ) + (-\frac{8}{12}) = -\frac{96}{11} + (-\frac{2}{3}) = -\frac{288 + 22}{33}) = -\frac{310}{33}\\ (-8) + (-\frac{8}{11} + (-\frac{2}{3})) = (-8) + (-\frac{46}{33})= -\frac{310}{33}

Answer:

The expression is true

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression (a+b)+c = a+ (b+c) is an associative law. Given a = -8 , b = (-8/11) , c = (-8/12), we need to verify that the expression is true. To do that we need to substitute the values given into the right hand side and the also left hand side of the expression and the values gotten for both sides must be equal.

Given the left hand side to be (a+b)+c, substituting the values of a,b and c into the expression, we have:

{-8+(-8/11)}+(-8/12)

= (-8-(8/11))-8/12

= (-88-8)/11-8/12

= -96/11-8/12

= (-1152-88)/132

= -1240/132

= -620/-66

= -310/33

Similarly for the right hand side of the expression a+(b+c)

= -8+(-8/11+(-8/12))

= -8+(-8/11-8/12)

= -8+{(-96-88)/132}

= -8+(-184/132)

= (-1056-184)/132

= -1240/132

= -310/33

Since both expression are equal to -310/33, then the associative law given above is true.

What’s the answer and how did you get it? i’m confused
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The answer is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you should put the gh with gh, 2  is equivalent to 2 (so the 2 disappeared) and you only have 8-7=1 plus 2=3.

How would I solve n/5-3n/10=1/5<br><br>pls help me I am literally failing math.
otez555 [7]

Answer:

53/5

Step-by-step explanation:

since 10 is the denominator of the denominator we can move it to the numerator, giving us 10n/5-3n = 1/5

multiply all sides by 5-3n, giving us 10n = (5-3n)/5

now multiply by 5 to get rid of the final denomintor, 50n = 5-3n

move 3n to the other side 53n = 5, n = 53/5
