which expressions are equivalent to the first one? I don't understand how to determine that so please explain. Thanks!

Answer:

(a) -(x+7)/y

(b) (x+7)/-y

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways you can show expressions are equivalent. Perhaps the easiest and best is to put them in the same form. For an expression such as this, I prefer the form of answer (a), where the minus sign is factored out and the numerator and denominator have positive coefficients.

The given expression with -1 factored out is ...

$\dfrac{-x-7}{y}=\dfrac{1(x+7)}{y}=\boxed{-\dfrac{x+7}{y}} \quad\text{matches A}$

Likewise, the expression of (b) with the minus sign factored out is ...

$\dfrac{x+7}{-y}=\boxed{-\dfrac{x+7}{y}}$

On the other hand, simplifying expression (c) gives something different.

$\dfrac{-x-7}{-y}=\dfrac{-(x+7)}{-(y)}=\dfrac{x+7}{y} \qquad\text{opposite the given expression}$

Another way you can write the expression is term-by-term with the terms in alpha-numeric sequence (so they're more easily compared).

Given: (-x-7)/y = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

(a) -(x+7)/y = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

(b) (x+7)/(-y) = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

(c) (-x-7)/(-y) = (x/y) +(7/y) . . . . not the same.

__

Of course, you need to know the use of the distributive property and the rules of signs.

a(b+c) = ab +ac

-a/b = a/(-b) = -(a/b)

-a/(-b) = a/b

__

Summary: The given expression matches (a) and (b).

Additional comments

Sometimes, when I'm really stuck trying to see if two expressions are equal, I subtract one from the other. If the difference is zero, then I know they are the same. Looking at (b), we could compute ...

$\left(\dfrac{-x-7}{y}\right)-\left(\dfrac{x+7}{-y}\right)=\dfrac{-y(-x-7)-y(x+7)}{-y^2}\\\\=\dfrac{xy+7y-xy-7y}{-y^2}=\dfrac{0}{-y^2}=0$

Yet another way to check is to substitute numbers for the variables. It is a good idea to use (at least) one more set of numbers than there are variables, just to make sure you didn't accidentally find a solution where the expressions happen to be equal. We can use (x, y) = (1, 2), (2, 3), and (3, 5) for example.

The given expression evaluates to (-1-7)/2 = -4, (-2-7)/3 = -3, and (-3-7)/5 = -2.

(a) evaluates to -(1+7)/2 = -4, -(2+7)/3 = -3, -(3+7)/5 = -2, same as given

(b) evaluates to (1+7)/-2 = -4, (2+7)/-3 = -3, (3+7)/-5 = -2, same as given

(c) evaluates to (-1-7)/-2 = 4, different from given

How long will it take an airplane flying at an average cruising speed of 230 miles per hour to fly 1380 miles?

lora16 [44]

Since it takes one hour to fly 230 miles, and we are looking for the number of hours, we can divide the number of miles we are given by the speed. In this case, we would divide 1380 by 230 to get 6. This means it would take 6 hours for the plane to fly 1380 miles.
