Bryce tried to solve an equation step by step.

Aloiza [94]

$$c=\frac{1}{3}$

Solution:

Given equation is $\frac{8}{3}=3c+\frac{5}{3}$ .

To solve the equation by step by step.

Step 1: Given

$\frac{8}{3}=3c+\frac{5}{3}$

Step 2: Combine like terms together.

Plus symbol changed to minus when the term goes from right to left (or) left to right of the equal sign.

$\frac{8}{3}-\frac{5}{3}=3c$

Step 3: Subtract the fractions in the left side.

$\frac{3}{3}=3c$

⇒ $1=3c$$

Step 4: Divide both side of the equation by 3, we get

$\frac{1}{3} =\frac{3c}{3}$

$\frac{1}{3} =c$

Hence, the answer is $c=\frac{1}{3}$ .

Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction? StartFraction 1 Over x EndFraction minus StartFraction 1 Over

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

$\frac{y-x}{x+y}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that fraction

$\frac{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}}{\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}}$

We have to find the expression which is equivalent to given fraction .

$\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}=\frac{y-x}{xy}$

$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}=\frac{x+y}{xy}$

Substitute the values then, we get

$\frac{\frac{y-x}{xy}}{\frac{y+x}{xy}}$

We know that

$\frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{x}{y}}=\frac{a}{b}\times \frac{y}{x}$

Using the property then, we get

$\frac{y-x}{xy}\times \frac{xy}{x+y}$

$\frac{y-x}{x+y}$

This is required expression which is equivalent to given expression.
