To reduce a fraction, divide the numerator and the denominator equally until they reach the simplest whole number possible.
In this case, the numerator (720) and the denominator (1080) can both be divided by 360 to get 2/3, our reduced fraction.
Answer:
-4 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Method 1</u>
Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula: 
Given 
Rewrite 16 as 4²
Therefore,
and 






<u>Method 2</u>
Given equation:

Add 16 to both sides:


Square root both sides:


Therefore, x = -4, x = 4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 blue, 5 red and total of 9 marbles.
<u>If two marbles are taken and we are looking for exactly one red, then it is:</u>
- red, then blue or blue, then red
<u>Find the probability of each case:</u>
- P(r, b) = 5/9*4/8 = 5/18
- P(b, r) = 4/9*5/8 = 5/18
<u>Probability of exactly one red:</u>
