Answer: -2 4/15
Step-by-step explanation: To properly subtract, we need to find a common denominator. We can list the multiples of 3 and 5 to find the common denominator:
3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15
5: 5, 10, 15
The first common multiple we see is 15.
Calculation:
3 · 3 = 9
9 + 1 = 10
3 1/3 = 10/3
5 x 5 = 25
25 + 3 = 28
-5 3/5 = -28/5
Now to convert into fifteen as the denominator:
-28/5 = -28 x 3/5 x 3 = -84/15
10/3 = 10 x 5/3 x 5 = 50/15
Now to subtract accordingly:
50/15 - 84/15 = -34/15
Final answer: -34/15 (can be reduced to -2 4/15).

Answer: x^2+5x+6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -43
y = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, you will have to find the value of x in terms of y using one of the equations and substituting the value in the other equation or vice versa.
Let's assume the numbers x and y, now we write the expressions.
x + y = -47
x - y = -39
Take the second equation and find x.
<u>Calculations:</u>
x - y = -39 (Add y on both sides)
x = -39 + y
Now that you got the value of x in terms of y, we can substitute.
<u>Calculations:</u>
(-39 + y ) + y = -47
2y - 39 = -47
2y = -8
y = -8/2 = -4
y = -4
Now that we got y, we can substitute that value in any of the equations to find x.
x - 4 = -47 or x + 4 = -39
x = -43
