First you need to find the common denominator. Think of a number that both 2 and 5 can go in to evenly. 10 is the best number, so, make both denominators 10. What you do to the bottom, you must do to the top.
Now your equation is 5/10-2/10
Your answer is 3/10
Answer: 12 - 4 = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B. 5 rolls
Step-by-step explanation:
The areas of the room, not including the ceiling, are discriminated as follows:
Longer walls: 
(6 inches equals one foot)
Shorter walls: 
(6 inches equals one foot)
Window area: 
Door area: 
Area that will be effectively covered:
Total area to wallpaper: 
Amount of paper needed: 
That is, the area of a roll of paper is 
Number of rolls needed:
rolls
-3x-6y=17
-6y=3x+17
y=-x/2-17/6 so the slope of the line is -1/2
For another line to be perpendicular to this one the product of their slopes must equal -1
(-1/2)m=-1, m=2 so the perpendicular line will have a slope of 2...
y=2x+b, using point (6,3) we can solve for b...
3=2(6)+b
3=12+b
b=-9 so
y=2x-9
