Keep the denominators the same and subtract the numerators. So for example in your example:
7/8 - 3/8
Leave the 8 alone. Subtract 3 from 7.
7 - 3 = 4
So answer is:
4/8
Sometimes they may have to simplify the answer, and in this case, 4/8 could be simplified to 1/2
3xy + 4x -16 ...... I hope that helps .
Answer:
<em><u>x=-6, y=-2</u></em>, (As a point) (-6, -2).....The point form is not necessary unless you want to solve the system (of equations) by graphing.
Step-by-step explanation:
By substitution:
x-y=-4 By adding y on both sides,
x=y-4
Now you can substitute x for the expression (y-4)
Plug the (y-4) as x in the other equation.
So -2x+3y=6 becomes
-2(y-4)+3y=6
Now solve:
-2(y-4)+3y=6 distributes out to be
-2y+8+3y=6 Now combining like terms
y+8=6 Subtract 8 on both sides to isolate the variable
<u><em>y=-2</em></u>
Now plug the value -2 in where the y is in any equation (preferably the easier/less complicated one) and solve for x.
So x-y=-4 becomes
x-(-2)=-4
=x+2=-4
=<u><em>x=-6</em></u>
Answer:
2π
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = πr^2
= π2^2
= 4π
4π is the area of the whole circle, so divide it in half to get the semicircle.
<u>= 2π</u>
