Combine likes terms to create an equivalent expression 1/7 - 3(3/7h -2/7)

Anastasy [175]

$\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7}) = \frac{7-9h}{7}$

Solution:

Given expression is:

$\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7})$

We have to combine the like terms

From given expression,

$\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7})$

By distributive property,

The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

a(b + c) = ab + bc

Therefore,

Solve for brackets using distributive property

$\frac{1}{7} - (3 \times \frac{3}{7}h) + (3 \times \frac{2}{7})\\\\\frac{1}{7} - \frac{9h}{7} + \frac{6}{7}$

Add 1/7 and 6/7

$\frac{1}{7} + \frac{6}{7} -\frac{9h}{7}\\\\\frac{1+6}{7} -\frac{9h}{7}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{7}{7}-\frac{9h}{7}\\\\1-\frac{9h}{7}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{7-9h}{7}$

Thus the equivalent expression is found

omeli [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

find the slope

$\frac{4-8}{-5-(-3)} =\frac{-4}{-2} \\\\slope=2\\y=mx+b\\y=2x+b\\$

take a coordinate to fill in

$(-5,4)\\y=-5\\x=4\\-5=2(4)+b\\-5=8+b-8 -8\\-13=b\\$

this means that the equation is y=2x-13

and if you add m and b

you get :-11
