Uhhh should there be a pic or something?
Answer:
- (6-u)/(2+u)
- 8/(u+2) -1
- -u/(u+2) +6/(u+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a few ways you can write the equivalent of this.
1) Distribute the minus sign. The starting numerator is -(u-6). After you distribute the minus sign, you get -u+6. You can leave it like that, so that your equivalent form is ...
(-u+6)/(u+2)
Or, you can rearrange the terms so the leading coefficient is positive:
(6 -u)/(u +2)
__
2) You can perform the division and express the result as a quotient and a remainder. Once again, you can choose to make the leading coefficient positive or not.
-(u -6)/(u +2) = (-(u +2)-8)/(u +2) = -(u+2)/(u+2) +8/(u+2) = -1 + 8/(u+2)
or
8/(u+2) -1
Of course, anywhere along the chain of equal signs the expressions are equivalent.

3) You can separate the numerator terms, expressing each over the denominator:
(-u +6)/(u+2) = -u/(u+2) +6/(u+2)
__
4) You can also multiply numerator and denominator by some constant, say 3:
-(3u -18)/(3u +6)
You could do the same thing with a variable, as long as you restrict the variable to be non-zero. Or, you could use a non-zero expression, such as 1+x^2:
(1+x^2)(6 -u)/((1+x^2)(u+2))
The interquartile range is 12-6=6
Answer: 10 dimes
Solve using system of equations.
q=number of quarters and d=number of dimes
.25q+.10d=5.50 because the total of dimes and quarters is $5.50
8+d=q because there are 8 more quarters than dimes
substitute 8+d for q into the first equation to get .25(8+d)+.10d=5.50
then simplify
2+.35d=5.50
.35d=3.50
d=10 he has 10 dimes
