Step-by-step explanation:
To add two fractions, they must have the same denominator.
LCD = 8

You can convert the fractions to the decimals.
![6\dfrac{1}{8}=8.125\\\\1\dfrac{1}{4}=1.25\\\\-6\dfrac{1}{8}+1\dfrac{1}{4}=-6.125+1.25=1.25-6.125=-4.875](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=6%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%7D%3D8.125%5C%5C%5C%5C1%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%3D1.25%5C%5C%5C%5C-6%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%7D%2B1%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%3D-6.125%2B1.25%3D1.25-6.125%3D-4.875)
There's no equation to find, as that is an expression.
However, an equal expression to that would be -1/2x - 2 + 9 for example.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let S is smart car and T is Toyota car
Case 1: 6 smart cars and 7 Toyota's = 6S + 7T
Case 2: 8 smart cars and 4 Toyota's
When 2 smart cars increase = 3 Toyota's cars descrease
So the ratio between them is:
2S = 3T
<=> S= 3/2T
so the maximum number of toyotas aboard the ferry
6*3/2T + 7T = 16 T
Take 7 and ➗ by 51 which comes out to .137 and you can round that up to .14 or 14/100
