We need a common denominator before we subtract. Both numbers go into 8. 5/8 stays as 5/8 and 1/2 becomes 4/8

Now we can subtract: 5/8 - 4/8
All we have to do is subtract the numerators (5 - 4) and keep the same denominator.

5 - 4 = 1

The answer is 1/8.

Choose the equations that are not linear equations. - x - y = 2, x^2 + y = 4, x/2 - y^3 = 1, x = 5

Answer:

x^2 + y = 4
x/2 - y^3 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Any equation with a product of variables, or with a variable in an exponent or denominator, is not a linear equation. Here, "product of variables" includes powers and roots—any expression with an exponent other than 1, or a total of exponents other than 1.
