-4/5 = -16/20, so the new expression is (-16/20)+(3/20)
then, -16 + 3 is -13, so the solution is -13/20

-4/5 + 3/20 = 3/20 - 4/5

To subtract 2 fractions, they both need to have the same denominator.
Since 5 is one of the divisors of 20, we can just multiply the numerator and denominator of 4/5 by 4.
4/5 = (4*4) / (5*4) = 16/20

P.S. when the denominators of both fractions don't have any relation, you multiply the numerator and denominator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second, and the numerator and denominator of the second by the denominator of the first.

3/20 - 4/5 = 3/20 - 16/20

Now you just subtract the numerators:
3/20 - 16/20 = (3-16)/20 = -13/20

So -4/5 + 3/20 = -13/20

Hope this helps! :)

Determine the equation of the following polyromial that passes through point (0,6).
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Cubic polynomial has zeros at x=−1x=−1 and 22, is tangent to x−x−axis at x=−1x=−1, and passes through the point (0,−6)(0,−6).

So cubic polynomial has double zero at x=−1x=−1, and single zero at x=2x=2

f(x)=a(x+1)2(x−2)f(x)=a(x+1)2(x−2)

f(0)=−6f(0)=−6

a(1)(−2)=−6a(1)(−2)=−6

a=3a=3

f(x)=3(x+1)2(x−2)f(x)=3(x+1)2(x−2)

f(x)=3x3−9x−6

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope.
zlopas [31]

Answer:

y+1 = -1(x+10)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope equation of a line is

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope  and (x1, y1) is a point on the line

y - -1 = -1 (x --10)

y+1 = -1(x+10)
