What's the difference between -1/2 and 1/6

Mathematics
1 answer:
horsena [70]3 years ago

Answer: -4/6 or -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find a common denominator among the fractions, which would be 6.

Convert -1/2 to have 6 as its denominator.

-1/2* 3/3 = -3/6

And then subtract them.

-3/6 - 1/6 = -4/6

-4/6 simplified is -2/3

When you subtract a positive number from a negative number, you are adding their absolute values.

Write an absolute value equation to satisfy the given solution set shown on a number line. PLEASE HELP
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: Ix - 4I ≤ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see a black dot in the zero, and a black dot in the 8.

So those are the extremes of our set and are included in the set of solutions, we have that the set is defined by:

0 ≤ x ≤ 8.

Now we want to construct an absolute value equation such that the set {0 ≤ x ≤ 8} is the set of solutions.

The first step is to find the middle value of that set:

The middle value is equal to half of the difference between the extremes:

m = (8 - 0)/2 = 4.

Now we know the middle point, so we can write the equation:

Ix - mI ≤ m

m = 4

Ix - 4I ≤ 4

That is our inequality.

Where the "equal" part of ≤ is for the values x = 0 and x = 8.

Which of the following is a valid exclusion for the algebraic fraction:
erastova [34]
We have the following expression:
 (27a ^ 3-1) / (9a ^ 2-6a + 1)
 Rewriting we have:
 (27a ^ 3-1) / (9a ^ 2-6a + 1)
 (27a ^ 3-1) / ((3a-1) * (3a-1))
 We exclude the values that make the denominator zero:
 3a-1 = 0
 a = 1/3
 Answer:
 
a valid exclusion for the algebraic fraction is:
 
c. a ≠ 1/3
