Answer:
y=2 16/25
in other words, two and sixteen twenty-fifths
Step-by-step explanation:
y/2-1/5=2-y/3
Move the variables to one side and constants to the other
y/2+y/3=2+1/5
Multiply y/2 by 3/3 and y/3 by 2/2 so that they have a common denominator
3y/6+2y/6=2 1/5
5y/6=11/5
Cross multiply
66=25y
y=66/25
y=2 16/25
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
Answer:
1/6 < 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The larger the denominator, the smaller that fraction would be. Both of the numerators are equal, so we don't have to worry about that. Since 6 is larger than 2, we know that 1/2 is larger than 1/6. hope I helped:))
7 2/3 + 8 5/6 = 16 1/2 ( or 32/2 )
Answer:
-x +6
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you want to simplify this.
Use the distributive property to eliminate the parentheses. That property tells you that the factor outside parentheses (2) will multiply both of the terms inside parentheses. It's as though you had a bag (parentheses) with two objects inside. Two such bags will have two of each of those objects.
2(-x +3) +x
= 2(-x) +2(3) +x
= -2x +6 +x
Now, the like terms -2x and +x can be combined.
= x(-2 +1) +6
= x(-1) +6
= -x +6 . . . . . the simplified expression
