A lot depends upon your interpretation of "opposite."  Do you mean "reciprocal?"

If you give the number a, the reciprocal would be 1/a.  Is that what you mean?

Or do you mean "the number with opposite sign?"  If you give the number b, "the number with opposite sign" would be -b.

Consider both cases.  Choose a rational number (such as 7/8).  Find the reciprocal of this number.  Find the number with opposite sign of this number.

(a) Simplify the expression: (4x - 6) - (x + 5)
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

a) 3x - 11

b) 10x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The negative sign before the (x+5) means to subtract those values. Reverse the signs. Then combine like terms:

4x –6 –x –5. 4x–x–6–5

3x –11

b) Put all the x terms together.

Put all the integers together.

Add. Adding a negative is the same as subtracting.

4x+x+5x = 10x

+6-2 = 4

Combine them:

10x + 4

Al sumar fracciones con igual denominador, debemos sumar numerador con numerador y denominador con denominador. Verdadero o fals
Ahat [919]

Answer:

La respuesta es falso.  

Step-by-step explanation:

La respuesta es falso.  

Cuando se suman fraccciones con igual denominador, se suman los numeradores (numerador con numerador) y se deja el mismo denominador (el cual es común en ambos). Por ejemplo, la suma de 1/5 + 3/5 da como resultado:    

\frac{1}{5} + \frac{3}{5} = \frac{1 + 3}{5} = \frac{4}{5}

En el caso de fracciones con diferentes denominadores, tampoco se suma numerador con numerador y denominador con denominador. En ese caso se debe encontrar el mínimo común múltiplo.

 

Por lo tanto, la respuesta es falso.

Espero que te sea de utilidad!
