2/3 is the same 4/6

7/2 is the same as 21/6

4/6 + 21/6 = 25/6

So the answer is 25/6, not 25/5.

Answer:

Length 37 cm, width 25 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original dimensions be length x and width x - 12 cms.

The new dimensions will be length (x - 2) and width (x - 12 - 2) = x-14 cm.

So , from the areas, we have:

x(x - 12) - (x - 2)(x - 14) = 120

x^2 - 12x - (x^2 - 16x + 28) = 120

-12x + 16x - 28 = 120

4x = 148

x = 37 cms

So the length was 37 cm and the width was 37-12 = 25 cm.

kaheart [24]

Answer:

First "order of operations" mistake: step 2

First arithmetic mistake: step 4

Step-by-step explanation:

As we understand Rena's work, she wants to simplify ...

$\left(\dfrac{x^{-3}y^{-2}}{2x^4y^{-4}}\right)^{-3}$

for x = -1 and y = 2.

Her work seems to be ...

Step 1

$\text{Substitute $x=-1$ and $y=2$ into the expression}\\\\\left(\dfrac{(-1)^{-3}2^{-2}}{2(-1)^42^{-4}}\right)^{-3}\qquad\text{no error}$

Step 2

$\text{Simplify the parentheses}\\\\\left(\dfrac{2^4}{2(-1)^4(-1)^32^2}\right)^{-3}=\left(\dfrac{2^2}{2(-1)^7}\right)^{-3}\qquad\text{order of operations error}$

Step 3

$\text{Evaluate the power to a power}\\\\\dfrac{2^{-6}}{2^{-3}(-1)^{21}}\qquad\text{no error}$

Step 4

$\text{Use reciprocals and find the value}\\\\\dfrac{1}{2^32^6(-1)^{21}}=\dfrac{1}{8\cdot 64\cdot (-1)}=\dfrac{-1}{512}\qquad\text{error: $2^3$ is used instead of $2^{-3}$}$

_____

So, the first arithmetic error is in Step 4. However, the order of operations requires exponents be evaluated first. Doing that makes step 2 look like ...

$\left(\dfrac{-\dfrac{1}{4}}{2(1)\dfrac{1}{16}}\right)^{-3}=(-2)^{-3}\qquad\text{proper Step 2}$

We expect your answer is supposed to be Step 4.
