The easiest way to solve this comparison without any unusual comparisons is to find a common denominator for the two fractions.
2/5 = 18/45
4/9 = 20/45
Since 20/45 is bigger than 18/45, we know that 4/9 is greater than 2/5

Answer:
m = (5x -6)/(43y -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 4m+6 to separate m-terms from other terms.
5x +4m -(4m +6) = 43my +6 -(4m +6)
5x -6 = 43my -4m
5x -6 = m(43y -4) . . . . factor out m
(5x -6)/(43y -4) = m . . . . divide by the coefficient of m
(-5x^5)(a) = 25x^7 + 100x^5
<u>+5x^5 +5x^5</u>
a = 25x^7
Answer:
The amount of wire left is 4x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Initially, the wire is (7x - 3) meters long.
A length of (3x - 4) meters is cut.
How much wire is left?
Initial amount subtracted by the amount that is cut. So
(7x - 3) - (3x - 4) = 7x - 3 - 3x + 4
We combine the like terms
7x - 3x - 3 + 4 = 4x + 1
The amount of wire left is 4x + 1
2a+3
