Answer:
y=12/5 (in decimal notation y=2.4)
Step-by-step explanation:
the value of 7y-2 = 10 more than 2y
7y-2 = 10+2y
7y-2y = 10+2
5y = 12
y = 12/5
y = 2.4
Answer:
22/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Make the whole number turn into a fraction, (21/3) and add the numerator (1/3), which the answer would be 22/3
Top:
x / (x + 1) - 1 / x
= [x^2 - (x +1)] / x(x+1)
= (x^2 - x - 1 ) / x (x+1)
Bottom:
x / (x + 1) + 1 / x
= [x^2 + (x +1)] / x(x+1)
= (x^2 + x + 1 ) / x (x+1)
Now you have:
(x^2 - x - 1 ) / x (x+1)
----------------------------
(x^2 + x + 1 ) / x (x+1)
= (x^2 - x - 1 ) / x (x+1) * x (x+1) / (x^2 + x + 1 )
= (x^2 - x - 1 ) /(x^2 + x + 1 )
Answer:
x^2 - x - 1
---------------------
x^2 + x + 1
