7/8 + (-2/3)

Mathematics
1 answer:
irakobra [83]3 years ago
7 0

Ok, lets start with the top.

7/8 + (-2/3)

Thats equal to

7/8 - 2/3

The common denominator will be 24

21/24 - 16/24

Subtract

5/24

Now, to divide you multiply by the reciprocal, so

5/24 / 5/6

Becomes

5/24 * 6/5

Cross simplify and get your answer

1/4

timurjin [86]
A. So, what I did was divided 30/8.5 and 22.5/11, and used the smaller of the two answers because that way they'd both fit, so I got 2.045. (I'm not 100% sure, but that's what i'd do)
b. Do something similar, and divide both sides, this time 30/11 and 22.5/8.5, so 2.647.

Two numbers multiply to be -7 and add to be -6. What are the numbers?<br><br> Example; 2,3
rewona [7]

<u>Given</u>:

Let the two numbers be x and y.

Two numbers multiply to be -7 and add to be -6.

This can be written in equation as,

xy=-7 and

x+y=-6

<u>Value of the two numbers:</u>

Let us determine the value of the two numbers using substitution method.

Substituting y=-6-x in the equation xy=-7, we get;

x(-6-x)=-7

Simplifying, we get;

       -6x-x^2=-7

   x^2+6x-7=0

(x+7)(x-1)=0

x=-7, 1

Thus, the values of x are x = 1,-7

When x = 1 , the equation x+y=-6 becomes y=-7

When x = -7, the equation x+y=-6 becomes y=1

Therefore, the two numbers are 1 and -7
