Using the factor label method, you would set up your ratio like so:
A) J = (3/8)*(5/15 -6/15) = (3/8)*(-1/15) = (1/8)*(-1/5) = -1/40
.. K = (3/4)*(4/6 -5/6) = (3/4)*(-1/6) = (1/4)*(-1/2) = -1/8
B) (-1/40) +(-1/8) = -1/40 -5/40 = -6/40 = -3/20
C) The opposite of -3/20 is 3/20
D) Real world: I'm answering Brainly.com questions and one asks the opposite of -3/20.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
13 - [(3² x 4) - 30]
13 - [(9 x 4) - 30]
13 - (36 - 30)
13-6

16) First solve like a normal equation.
3|x/9| - 1 = 2
3|x/9| = 3
|x/9| = 1
Now just separate into two equations:
x/9 = 1
x/9 = -1
So x = 9, -9
17) Solve like normal:
-4 - 2|b - 10| = -6
-2 |b - 10| = -2
|b - 10| = 1
Now just separate into two equations:
b - 10 = 1
b - 10 = -1
So then b = 11, 9
