Answer:
Associative
Step-by-step explanation:
Associative property is the one that says that when 3 or more numbers are summed, the grouping of such numbers has no effect on the result of the sum. It is:
(a + b) + c = a + (b + c) for every a, b and c real numbers.
2 3/8 - 1/4 = 2 1/8 x 1/8 = 17/64.
To do this, you first need to do the problem in the (). You have to turn 1/4 with a denominator of eight, so the fraction becomes 2/8. 2 3/8 - 2/8 = 2 1/8. Now we have to turn 2 1/8 into an improper fraction by doing whole number x denominator + numerator. 17/8 x 1/8 = 17/64.
Answer:
x = -2 or x = 1/3 thus: B & C
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x over the real numbers:
2 x^2 + 7 x - 2 = 2 x - x^2
Subtract 2 x - x^2 from both sides:
3 x^2 + 5 x - 2 = 0
The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:
(x + 2) (3 x - 1) = 0
Split into two equations:
x + 2 = 0 or 3 x - 1 = 0
Subtract 2 from both sides:
x = -2 or 3 x - 1 = 0
Add 1 to both sides:
x = -2 or 3 x = 1
Divide both sides by 3:
Answer: x = -2 or x = 1/3
Answer:
x=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
divide 12 on both sides and that equals -7
