Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
When adding rational numbers, if the denominator is the same you simply keep the denominator (bottom of fraction) as it is and apply the operation given to the numerator ( top of fraction )
So we have 
==> remove parenthesis and apply signs

==> simplify numerator by combining like terms

and we are done!
Note:
like terms are terms with the same variable and exponent
An example of like terms are 6x^7 and 3x^7 as they have x as a variable and a power of 7
The like terms being combined here were (6x² and 4x²) and (5 and -2)
Answer:
3^(2/15)

Answer: 2 / 5x
Explanation:
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Part a .............> x = 11
Part b .............> k = 57.2
Part c .............> y = 9.2
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
The three problems deal with inverse variation between two variables
An inverse variation relation between two variables means that when one of the variables increases, the other will decrease (and vice versa)
<u>Mathematically, an inverse variation relation is represented as follows:</u>

where x and y are the two variables and k is the constant of variation
<u><em>Now, let's check the givens:</em></u>
<u>Part a:</u>
We are given that y = 3 and k = 33
<u>Substitute in the original relation and solve for x as follows:</u>

<u>Part b:</u>
We are given that y = 11 and x = 5.2
<u>Substitute in the original relation and solve for k as follows:</u>

<u>Part c:</u>
We are given that x=7.8 and k=72
<u>Substitute in the original relation and solve for y as follows:</u>
to the nearest tenth
Hope this helps :)
