Answer:

1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

We can't subtract two fractions with different denominators. So you need to get a common denominator. To do this, you'll multiply the denominators times each other... but the numerators have to change, too. They get multiplied by the other term's denominator.

So we multiply 11 by 8, and get 88.Then we multiply 7 by 12, and get 84.

Next we give both terms new denominators -- 12 × 8 = 96.

So now our fractions look like this:

88 /96 -84 /96

Step 2

Since our denominators match, we can subtract the numerators.

88 − 84 = 4

So the answer is:

4 /96

Step 3

Last of all, we need to simplify the fraction, if possible. Can it be reduced to a simpler fraction?

To find out, we try dividing it by 2...

Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 2? Yes! So we reduce it:            

4 /96 ÷ 2 =2 /48

Let's try dividing by 2 again...

Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 2? Yes! So we reduce it:

2 /48 ÷ 2 =1 /24

Let's try dividing by 2 again...

No good. 2 is larger than 1. So we're done reducing.                                    There you have it! The final answer is:

11 /12 -7 /8=1 /24

Answer:

1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

  • 11/12-7/8

Simplifly the denominator:

  • \frac{11}{12}=\frac{88}{96}
  • \frac{7}{8}=\frac{84}{96}

Subtract the fraction term:

  • \frac{88}{96}-\frac{84}{96}=\frac{4}{96}

Simplifly the fraction term:

  • \frac{4}{96}=\frac{1}{24}

Therefore, 11/12-7/8=1/24.

3x4²-(-6)²+4-6x4 <br>Need help!! Please!!
goblinko [34]
Assuming the x stands for multiplication... follow the ordering rules:

First let's take care of the exponents. 4²=16 and (-6)²=36. At the same time I will add some spacing between the terms:

3x16 - 36 + 4 - 6x4

Now do the multiplications:

48 - 36 + 4 - 24

The rest is just addition and subtraction

48 - 36 + 4 - 24 = -8

Can someone help pleaseeeeeee
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The parabolas equation is

(y - k)^2 = 4p(x - h)

Where h,k is the vertex

Substituting the vertex ad (2,-4)

(y - -4)^2 = 4p(x - 2)

(y +4)^2 = 4p(x - 2)

We need to find p from the other point they give us (-3,-3)

(-3 +4)^2 = 4p(-3 - 2)

1^2 = 4p (-5)

1 = -20p

Divide by -20

1/-20 = -20p/-20

-1/20 = p

Substituting back into the equation

(y +4)^2 = 4(-1/20)(x - 2)

Simplifying

(y +4)^2 = (-1/5)(x - 2)

FOILing

y^2 +8y +16 = -1/5x +2/5

Multiply by 5

5y^2 +40y +80 = -x +2

Subtract 2

5y^2 +40y +80-2 = -x +2-2

5y^2 +40y +78 = -x

Multiply by -1

-5y^2 -40y -78 = x

The coefficient of y^2  is -5
