Simplify the expression -7/9 - 5/10

Mathematics
1 answer:
sattari [20]3 years ago
3 0

We can sum two fractions if they have the same denominator, so we have to rewrite both fractions so that they'll have the same denominator.

We can generate equivalent fractions by multiplying both numerator and denominator by the same number.

So, we have

-\dfrac{7}{9} = -\dfrac{7\cdot 10}{9\cdot 10} = -\dfrac{70}{90}

Similarly, we have

-\dfrac{5}{10} = -\dfrac{5\cdot 9}{10\cdot 9} = -\dfrac{45}{90}

Now we can sum the fractions:

-\dfrac{7}{9}-\dfrac{5}{10} = -\dfrac{70}{90}-\dfrac{45}{90} = \dfrac{-70-45}{90} = -\dfrac{115}{90} = -\dfrac{23}{18}

<span>
And this happens when the </span><span>selling price of each soccer ball is:

</span>x = 8.33
<span>
So if you want to get the best daily profit, this is the price you must sell each soccer ball.</span>
