First, you must change all of this into improper fractions, like shown below.
Now you must change the sign.
Then we must reciprocalize 2/3.
Now we multiply, to get 2 4/10.
-8+b2-(5+b2). Since the - is outside the paranthesis the signs inside change: -8+b2-5-b2. -8-5=-3, b2-b2=0. Your answer: -3 :)
The simplified version of this x-2z
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to start by combining like terms. You can start with the terms that have the variable x in them. By combining those terms, the equation becomes x+3y-z-3y-z.
From here, you can combine the terms 3y and -3y, which bring the equation to x-z-z.
From here, combine the terms with the variable z. This would bring the equation down too x-2z, your final answer.
