Answer: 2 25 52

Step-by-step explanation: They used a base of 60

from <u>right to left</u> a.60⁰, b.60¹, c.60², etc.

As 60³ = 216000 > 8752, we should start with 60².

As 60² = 3600, 8752/3600 = 2,43, we use 2.60²

8752 - 2.60² = 8752 - 7200 = 1552

1552/60 = 25,87; we use 25.60

1552 - 25.60 = 1552 - 1500 = 52

∴ 8752 = 2 25 52

Which expression is equivalent to -1/4( -1/2x - 3/4) -1/2 ( 3/4x + 1/8)

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{-1}{4}(\frac{-1}{2}x-\frac{3}{4})-\frac{1}{2}(\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{1}{8})\\\\=\frac{-1}{4}*\frac{-1}{2}x-\frac{-1}{4}*\frac{3}{4}-\frac{1}{2}*\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{8}\\\\=\frac{1}{8}x+\frac{3}{16}-\frac{3}{8}x-\frac{1}{16}\\\\=\frac{1}{8}x-\frac{3}{8}x+\frac{3}{16}-\frac{1}{16}\\\\=\frac{(1-3)x}{8}+\frac{3-1}{16}\\\\=\frac{-2}{8}x+\frac{2}{16}\\\\=\frac{-1}{4}x+\frac{1}{4}$
