Answer:

  check your math

Step-by-step explanation:

The first subtraction was correct:

  36 -7 3/4 = 28 1/4

The second subtraction needs to be revisited.

  28 1/4 -6 2/4 = 27 5/4 -6 2/4 = 21 3/4

__

You can do what you did, but you need to pay attention to the signs.

  28 1/4 -6 2/4 = (28 -6) +(1/4 -2/4) = 22 - 1/4 = 21 3/4

The result of subtracting 2/4 from 1/4 is -1/4, not +1/4.

-7.85=x/-3.14 <br> solve for x
liraira [26]
Okay. So, from the two numbers that are shown right now, x will definitely represent a positive number. What we have to do is the inverse. Basically, we'll do the inverse (opposite of division) and multiply both numbers to find x. 7.85 * 3.14 = 24.649, which rounds to 24.65 if you need to round your answer to the nearest hundredth or 24.6 if you need to round it to the nearest tenth. Or if you can just use the number as it shows up, then the real answer is 24.649

Solve the equation. Then check your solution.<br> -<br> (3a + 4) = 7<br> Helppp
Sati [7]

Answer:

a= -3\frac{2}{3} or ≈ -3.66

Step-by-step explanation:

-(3a+4)=7

-3a-4=7

<em>Add 4 to both sides</em>

-3a=11

<em>Multiply both sides by -1</em>

3a= -11

Divide both sides by 3

a= -3\frac{2}{3}
