Combine likes terms to create an equivalent expression 1/7 - 3(3/7h -2/7)

Anastasy [175]

$\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7}) = \frac{7-9h}{7}$

Solution:

Given expression is:

$\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7})$

We have to combine the like terms

From given expression,

$\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7})$

By distributive property,

The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

a(b + c) = ab + bc

Therefore,

Solve for brackets using distributive property

$\frac{1}{7} - (3 \times \frac{3}{7}h) + (3 \times \frac{2}{7})\\\\\frac{1}{7} - \frac{9h}{7} + \frac{6}{7}$

Add 1/7 and 6/7

$\frac{1}{7} + \frac{6}{7} -\frac{9h}{7}\\\\\frac{1+6}{7} -\frac{9h}{7}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{7}{7}-\frac{9h}{7}\\\\1-\frac{9h}{7}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{7-9h}{7}$

Thus the equivalent expression is found

How can you determine which variable is dependent and which variable is independent

padilas [110]

MrBillDoesMath!

Answer: The dependent variable depends on another variable for its value. For example, if y = 2x, setting x = 1 forces y= 2.; setting x = 10, forces y =20. There are no other possibilities for y once x ids chosen. So y is the dependent variable and x is the independent one. You can pick values for the independent variable (x) but no so for the dependent one.
