2 3/8 - 1 7/8
Change to improper fractions

If these are mixed numbers, which I believe they are from the context, then the first step is to convert each mixed number into an improper fraction.
2 = 16/8 (sixteen eighths)
16/8 + 3/8 = 19/8
1 = 8/8 (eight eighths)
8/8 + 7/8 = 16/8
Then just subtract these improper fractions:
When subtracting fractions, only subtract the numerators.
19/8 - 16/8 = 3/8 (three eighths)
So the answer is three eighths (3/8)

  • Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>

y = -3x - 2

5x + 2y = 15

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

<em>Substitution</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>y</em>:                     5x + 2(-3x - 2) = 15
  2. Distribute 2:                          5x - 6x - 4 = 15
  3. Combine like terms:            -x - 4 = 15
  4. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                      -x = 19
  5. Isolate <em>x</em>:                               x = -19

<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>

  1. Define original equation:                    y = -3x - 2
  2. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                                     y = -3(-19) - 2
  3. Multiply:                                                y = 57 - 2
  4. Subtract:                                               y = 55
