Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$-6w + 1 = -11$

Move +1 to the right side and change its sign

$-6w =-11-1\\$

Simplify

$-6w =-12$

Divide both sides of the equation by -6

$\frac{-6w}{-6} = \frac{-12}{-6} \\\\w = 2$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a² - b² = (a+ b)(a - b)

1) (2n-4/2n) ÷ (n^2-4/n)

$=\frac{2n-4}{2n}*\frac{n}{n^{2}-4}\\\\=\frac{2n-2*2}{2n}*\frac{n}{n^{2}-2^{2}}\\\\=\frac{2*(n-2)}{2n}*\frac{n}{(n+2)*(n-2)}\\\\=\frac{1}{n+2}$

2) [y^2-36/y^2-49] ÷[ y+6/y-7]

$=\frac{y^{2}-36}{y^{2}-49}*\frac{y-7}{y+6}\\\\=\frac{y^{2}-6^{2}}{y^{2}-7^{2}}*\frac{y-7}{y+6}\\\\=\frac{(y+6)*(y-6)}{(y+7)*(y-7)}*\frac{y-7}{y+6}\\\\=\frac{y-6}{y+7}\\$

3) [m^2-1/ m^2-m] ÷ [m^2-7m-8/3m ]

$=\frac{m^{2}-1}{m^{2}-m}*\frac{3m}{m^{2}-7m-8}\\\\=\frac{(m+1)*(m-1)}{m*(m-1)}*\frac{3m}{(m-8)*(m+1)}\\\\=\frac{3}{m-8}$

Hint : m² - 7m - 8

sum = -7

Product = -8

Factor = (-8), 1

m² - 7m - 8 =m² - 8m + m - 8

= m*(m - 8) + (m-8)

= (m - 8)(m +1)

If a 12 foot ppiece of electrical tape has 5 pieces that are each 1.45 feet cut from it, what is the new length of the tape?

liberstina [14]

4.75 feet, because you would multiply 5 by 1.54 which gives you 7.25 subtract that from 12
