Answer:

<u>34</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this equation by giving Sara's number a variable.

Let it be <em>x</em>.

Then we solve by simply interpreting the problem step by step.

"If you subtract 14 from my number..."

x - 14

"...and multiply the different by -4..."

-4(x-14)

"...the result is -80"

-4(x-14) = -80

Now that we have our equation, we can solve for <em>x</em>.

1.) Use distributive property to expand.

-4x + 56 = -80

2.) Subtract 56 from both sides

-4x = -136

3.) Divide by -4

x = 34

Sara's number is 34

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rationalize the denominator by multiplying both denominator & numerator by the conjugate of the denominator.

Conjugate of the denominator  1 + √3 is 1 - √3

\frac{6}{1+\sqrt{3}}=\frac{6(1-\sqrt{3})}{(1+\sqrt{3})(1-\sqrt{3})}\\\\=\frac{6(1-\sqrt{3})}{(1+\sqrt{3})(1-\sqrt{3})}\\\\=\frac{6(1-\sqrt{3})}{1^{2}-(\sqrt{3})^{2}}\\\\=\frac{6(1-\sqrt{3})}{1-3}\\\\=\frac{6(1-\sqrt{3})}{-2}\\\\=(-3)(1-\sqrt{3})\\\\=-3+3\sqrt{3}
