8 0

Answer:

8 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The balance is in equilibrium, so the weights of the two sides are equal.

Let the weight of a square be s.

Left side: 2s + 4

Right side: s + 3(4) = s + 12

The weights are equal, so we set the two expressions equal.

2s + 4 = s + 12

s = 8

Answer: The weight of a square is 8 grams.

Perform the indicated operation.(4r/r+3) - (5/r)

Aleks [24]

Answer:

4r² - 5r - 15 / r(r+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we will proceed the following way, writing down the common multiple of the denominators.

$\frac{4r}{r+3} -\frac{5}{r} =\frac{4r(r)-5(r+3)}{r(r+3)} =\frac{4r^{2}-5r-15 }{r(r+3)}$

Thus, the answer is 4r² - 5r - 15 / r(r+3)
