Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

-21 = z - (-6 - 2z)

Step 2: Solve for z

Distribute negative: -21 = z + 6 + 2z
Combine like terms: -21 = 3z + 6
Isolate z term: -27 = 3z
Isolate z: -9 = z
Rewrite: z = -9

How to reduce into simpler terms.?

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The simplest form of the fraction $\frac{45}{100}$ is $\frac{9}{20}$ .

i.e.

$\frac{45}{100}=\frac{9}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are some simple observations regarding how to reduce a fraction into simpler terms:

A fraction is reduced to lowest or simplest terms by finding an equivalent fraction in which the numerator and denominator are as small as possible.

In order to reduce a fraction to lowest or simplest terms, divide the numerator and denominator by their (GCF). Note that (GCF) is also called Greatest Common Factor .

So, lets take a sample fraction and reduce into simpler terms.

Considering the fraction

$\frac{45}{100}$

$\mathrm{Find\:a\:common\:factor\:of\:}45\mathrm{\:and\:}100\mathrm{\:in\:order\:to\:cancel\:it\:out}$

$\mathrm{Greatest\:Common\:Divisor\:of\:}45,\:100:\quad 5$

$\mathrm{Factor\:out\:}5\mathrm{\:from\:the\:numerator\:and\:the\:denominator}$

$45=5\cdot \:9\mathrm{,\:\quad }100=5\cdot \:20$

$\frac{45}{100}=\frac{5\cdot \:\:9}{5\cdot \:\:20}$

$\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:5$

$=\frac{9}{20}$

Therefore, the simplest form of the fraction $\frac{45}{100}$ is $\frac{9}{20}$ .

i.e.

$\frac{45}{100}=\frac{9}{20}$

Answer:

B. (3, –1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection in the line y=-x is described by the transformation ...

(x, y) ⇒ (-y, -x)

Then the point of interest becomes ...

F(1, -3) ⇒ F'(3, -1) . . . . matches choice B
