Answer:
-1/4 (2x - 5y)
Step-by-step explanation:
For us to factor -1/4 out of -1/2x -5/4y
We will have to multiply the values in bracket by the reciprocal of -1/4 i.e -4 as shown
-1/2x - 5/4 y
= -1/4 (-4(-1/2x) - (-4)(-5/4y))
= -1/4 (4/2 x - 20/4 y)
= -1/4 (2x - 5y)
Hence the factored expression is -1/4 (2x - 5y)
Answer:
x-5=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
|x-5|+2=5
|x-5|=5-2
|x-5|=3
x-5=±3
so x-5=-3 is a correct step.
