⓵ You need to solve the left side first in order to isolate the × and find it’s value :
-7× + 6 = 27
-6 -6
↓
-7× = 21
÷-7 ÷-7
↓
× = -3
If you find it too difficult to divide a number by a negative, just divide 21 by 7 and always remember that when dividing, when the signs are different the answer is negative. So knowing that you could just divide 21 by 7, which is 3, and add a negative sign in front!
I hope this helped, if there’s anything let me know! ☻
I have the same question! have you figured it out ??
Look at deonomators
assuming that the deonomenators are 5x+15y and 2x+6y
find their LCM
factor
5x+15y=5(x+3y)
2x+6y=2(x+3y)
LCM=10(x+3y)=10x+30y
multiply 2/(5x+15y) by 2/2=4/(10x+30y)
multiply 1/(2x+6y) by 5/5=5/(10x+30y)
if we add them
9/(10x+30y)
