1/6p - 4/5
Explanation: -2/3p needs to have the same denominator as 5/6p so they can combine. (Note, whatever sign is in front of a number determines if it is negative or positive. Your equation indicates that the bolded parts are negative and the other parts are positive: -2/3p + 1/5 - 1 + 5/6p. So what we are really doing in an equation like this is combining some numbers together)
-2/3p and 5/6p and the least common multiple of six, so we adjust the numbers to each have a denominator of 6. 5/6p is already there, so we need to adjust -2/3p.
We can multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2 to turn -2/3p into -4/6p. -4/6p has the same value as -2/3p, and now it also has the same denominator as 5/6p!
We then have to combine like terms, therefore combining -4/6p with 5/6p. When adding together fractions, the denominator does not change (this is why both numbers must have the same denominators). So our answer will be _/6p. So we combine -4 with 5, giving us one.
Therefore, -2/3p combined with 5/6p is 1/6p.
Now we have to combine our other set of like terms, 1/5 and -1. We can do this the same way that we combined the other numbers.
1/5 and -1 need the same denominator. This is simple because 1 can easily be figured out with any denominator, as long as the numerator and denominator are the same. This would make 1 = 5/5. But we need it negative, so it would be -5/5.
Now that we have common denominators, we can combine!
1/5 - 5/5
Remember what we said before, the solution will have the same denominator, so all we need to do is (in this case) subtract the numerators.
1 - 5 = 4
So that would be -4/5.
With the like terms combined, we just need to put our two combinations (1/6p and -4/5) together!
Our answer: 1/6p - 4/5
I hope that helps!
Answer:
The triangles are congruent because:
- QP = ST
- angle P = angle T
- the side PT is in both triangles
We know when 2 sides of two triangles and the angle between them is congruent, the triangles are congruent.
You need to isolate x.
71 - 5x = 9x - 13
Add 13 to both sides.
84 - 5x = 9x
Add 5x to both sides.
84 = 14x
Divide both sides by 14.
6 = x
<h3>The answer is x = 6.</h3>
Answer:
D. 3x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find (f-g)(x) you have to subtract each fuction
(f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)
(f-g)(x) = 5x -2 - (2x+1)
(f-g)(x) = 5x -2 -2x -1
(f-g)(x) = 3x -3
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression can be written as
The - can be taken out from under the radicand and a 2 can be factored out of the expression to leave you with the expression
