If you would like to order the following values in descending order, you can do this using the following steps:
- 3/4 = - 0.75
1/8 = 0.125
- 0.735
7/8 = 0.875
1/80 = 0.0125
0.056
The result is: 7/8, 1/8, 0.056, 1/80, - 0.735, -0.75.
X miles per hour - <span> speed of the boat in still water
(x - 2) - speed up the river
(x + 2) - speed down the river
</span>

=

30 * (x + 2) = 38 * (x - 2)
30x + 60 = 38x - 76
- 8x = - 136
x =
17 miles per hour - <span>
the speed of the boat in still water.</span>

6/(x-1)-5x/4
subtracting the above we put the fraction under the same denominator:
6/(x-1)-5x/4
multiplying the denominators we get:
4(x-1)
thus subtracting we get:
6/(x-1)-5x/4
=(4*6-5x(x-1))/[4(x-1)]
=[24-5x^2+5x]/(4x-4)
Answer:
(-5x^2+5x+24)/(4x-4)

3/(x+7)+4/(x-8)
the common denominator is:
(x+7)*(x-8)=(x+7)(x-8)
thus adding the fractions we put them under the same denominator as follows:
[3(x-8)+4(x+7)]/[(x+7)(x-8)]
=[3x-24+4x+28]/[(x+7)(x-8)]
=(7x+4)/[(x+7)(x-8)]
