Answer:

-66+12 or -54

Step-by-step explanation:

To remove the parenthesis multiply the number outside of the parenthesis (in this case -6) to the numbers inside of the parenthesis (11, and -2).

$-6*11=-66$

A negative multiplied by a positive is a negative.

$-6*-2=12$

A negative multiplied by a negative is a positive.

$-66+12=-54$

Leons older brother is 4 and 3/4 feet tall. Leon is 1/3 foot shorter than his brother .how tall is leon

Mandarinka [93]

Let

x------> height of Leon's older brother

y------> height of Leon

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$4\frac{3}{4}\ ft=\frac{4*4+3}{4}= \frac{19}{4}\ ft$

we know that

$x=\frac{19}{4}\ ft$ -----> equation A

$y=x-\frac{1}{3}$ -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$y=\frac{19}{4}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{53}{12}\ ft$

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{53}{12}=\frac{48}{12}+\frac{5}{12}=4\frac{5}{12}\ ft$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

$4\frac{5}{12}\ ft$

Help? Multi-Step Equations - Fractions. Solve the Equation.<br>PLEASE DO IT STEP BY STEP (visual)

GREYUIT [131]

R - 10/3 + 1/2 = -11/6...if u multiply everything by the common denominator 6, it will get rid of the fractions.

(6)r - 6(10/3) + 6(1/2) = 6(-11/6)
6r - 60/3 + 6/2 = - 66/6...simplify
6r - 20 + 3 = - 11
6r - 17 = -11
6r = -11 + 17
6r = 6
r = 6/6
r = 1 <===
