Answer:

$\Huge \boxed{5x - 19}$

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A ——— B ——— C

AC = 8x - 20

AB = 3x - 1

BC = AC - AB

BC = (8x - 20) - (3x - 1)

Distributing negative sign.

BC = 8x - 20 - 3x + 1

Combining like terms.

BC = 5x - 19

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

I need help finding the lowest term for -8/9+11/15

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

-7/45

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the lowest common denominator for 9 and 15. It's 45. Make both fractions over 45 by multiplying the top and bottom by the same number.

$-\frac{8}{9} +\frac{11}{15}$

$= -\frac{8*5}{9*5} +\frac{11*3}{15*3}$ Since 15*3=45, multiply the top by 3 also. Since 9*5=45, multiply the top by 5 also.

$= -\frac{40}{45} +\frac{33}{45}$

$= \frac{-40+33}{45}$ Combine the fractions

$= -\frac{7}{45}$ Answer in lowest terms

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

3.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = 21 miles

Speed * time

Speed * time = distance

Tom speed = 2 mph

Brian = 4 mph

Let time = t

Brian distance + Tom's distance = total distance

4t + 2t = 21

6t = 21

t = 21 / 6

t = 3.5 hours
