Answer:

<u>An improper fraction is when the numerator is a larger number than the denominator.</u> An improper fraction is also what the fraction is before you simplify it down to either a whole number or a mixed number.

An example of an improper fraction simplified to a whole number is 25/5. This can be simplified down to 5.

An example of an improper fraction simplified to a mixed number is 17/3. This can be simplified down to 5-2/3.

Answer:

An improper fraction is when the numerator of the fraction is larger than the denominator

For example, 13/4 is improper because 13 > 4

An improper fraction can be changed into a mixed number by dividing the numerator by the denominator

For example, 13 divided by 4 is 3 with remainder 1, or 3 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

R(x) = 6x - 3

S(x) = -3x - 8

<u>Step 2: Find</u>

  1. Substitute in functions:                                                                                     R(x) - S(x) = 6x - 3 - (-3x - 8)
  2. [Distributive Property] Distribute negative:                                                    R(x) - S(x) = 6x - 3 + 3x + 8
  3. [Addition] Combine like terms:                                                                        R(x) - S(x) = 9x + 5

Twice a number (z) added to 21 is equal to 9 times the number added to 7. What is the number?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The number is  2

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice a number (z) = 2*z = 2z

Twice a number (z) added to 21  = 2z + 21

9 times the number added to 7 = 9z + 7

9z + 7 = 2z + 21

Subtract 2z form both sides

9z - 2z + 7 = 21

       7z + 7 = 21

Subtract 7 from both sides

7z = 21 - 7

 7z = 14

Divide both sides by 7

z = 14/7

z = 2
