Answer:

x = (b-c)/a

Step-by-step explanation:

ax + b = c

Subtract b from each side

ax+b-b = c-b

ax = b-c

Divide by a

ax/a = (b-c)/a

x = (b-c)/a

What is the difference of the fractions? Use the number line to help find the answer.<br> 7

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

C.) -7/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract fractions, we need to have common denominators. So first, we will change -1 1/5 to -6/5.

Now we will change the denominator of both -6/5 and 1/2 to 10.

We now have:

5/10 and -12/10

5-12=-7

So the answer would be -7/5

If we want to use the number line, we would first find 5/10 (1/2) on the graph and count down (to simulate subtraction) 12 units since we are subtracting by 12. :))

Use the properties of exponents to simplify the expression

ExtremeBDS [4]

Option B is correct after applying the property of integer exponent and simplification.

<h3>What is an integer exponent?</h3>

In mathematics, integer exponents are exponents that should be integers. It may be a positive or negative number. In this situation, the positive integer exponents determine the number of times the base number should be multiplied by itself.

We have:

$=\rm (x.x^{-3}.y^{\dfrac{1}{3}})^2$
