Answer:
p = 2
n = 14
m = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to be able combine (either add or subtract) rational expressions we need to write them with a common (similar) denominator. For that reason we first find the Least Common Denominator of both fractions, that way understanding how to express the two fractions using equivalent fractions with like denominator that can be combined.
We see that the denominator of the first fraction contains the factor "x", therefore "x" has to be a factor of that least common denominator.
We also see that the second fraction contains "2" as a factor, therefore 2 has to be a factor as well for our Least Common Denominator (LCD)
So the LCD we need is the product: 2*x which we write as 2x.
Now we write the first fraction as an equivalent one but with denominator "2x" by multiplying top and bottom by 2 (and thus not changing the actual value of the fraction): 
Next we do the same with the second fraction, this time multiplying top and bottom by the factor "x":

Now that both fractions are written showing the same denominator , we can combine them as indicated:

This expression gives as then the values for the requested coefficients.
p = 2
n = 14
m = 3
Answer:
6x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
8x +7 - 2x - 4
8x-2x+7-4 ( combine like terms)
answer:
6x+3
Reminder:Whenever combining like terms, the sign changes the same

Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, rearrange the terms of this equation to y=mx+b form, where m is the slope.
Original equation: 5x-y=2
Subtract 5x to both sides: -y = -5x+2
Multiply both sides by -1: y = 5x-2\
This gives us the slope, which is equal to 5.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that bottle was half full at 11.35 a.m. and full at 11.40 a.m.
This implies it takes 5 minutes for the liquid to double.
This is confirmed by the statement that before 5 minutes i.e. at 11.30 the bottle was only 1/4 full.
Hence true statements would be:
1) The bottle was 1/2 full at 11:35 a.m. and doubled again after 5 minutes.
2) The bottle was 1/4 full at 11:30 a.m. and doubled twice after 10 minutes. The bottle was 1/2 full at 11:35 a.m.
3) Exponential growth involves a constant multiplicative rate of change.
(The rate cannot be additional as we get 2 times every 5 minutes)
Answer:
b)-1/2 is the required answer
