1.5 but you can’t get half a person
You wanna find a common denominator so put the problem like this
3 1/3.< You wanna take 3 (denominator)
And times it
By 5 then you wanna take the 5. - 2 2/5.< (deniminator) and times it by 3.
____ Your common denominator is 15
now it will look like this
3 1/15
-2 2/15
———-
Now subtract. You will need to borrow 1 from 3 since you cant subtract 2 by 1 so the 3 will become a 2 and the 1 will be come 11 and here you can subtract so this will be your answer.
2 11/15
-2 2/15
-———-
0 9/15
Thats your official answer 9/15 hope I helped :)
F(x)=(-2/((x+y-2)^(1/2))-(x+y+2)^(1/2)
the only irrational part of this expression is the (x+y-2)^(1/2) in the denominator, so, to rationalize this, you multiply the numerator and denominator by the denominator, as well as the other parts of the expression
also, you must multiply the -sqrt(x+y+2) by sqrt(x+y-2)/sqrt(x+y-2) to form a common denominator
(-2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)-(x+y+2)^(1/2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(common denominator)
(-2-(x^2+xy+2x+xy+y^2+2y-2x-2y-4))/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(FOIL)
(-2-x^2-y^2-2xy+4)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Distribute negative)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Simplify numerator)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Rationalize denominator by multiplying both top and bottom by sqrt)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)((x+y-2)^(1/2))/(x+y-2)
(The function is now rational)
=(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)(sqrt(x+y-2))/(x+y-2)
Second answer if it still helps
Step-by-step explanation:
40 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 5
28 = 2* 2 * 7
So now
The GCF = 2 * 2 = 4
