Answer:
- 
Step-by-step explanation:
=
( cross- multiply )
6x = 5y ( divide both sides by 6 )
x =
y
Then
← substitute x =
y into the expression

Answer:
The second leg of the right triangle is about 9.4.
The terms of subtraction are called minuend and subtrahend
To calculate hypothenuse you use the formula a^2+b^2=c^2 where c is the length of the hypothenuse.
1. 5^2+7^2=c^2
2.25+49=74
3. Now you will square root the 74
4. The hypothenuse is equal to 8.6
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.
×
+
×
Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 14 and 12 using
GCF(14,12) = 2
14÷2 / 12÷2 =7/6
The fraction
7/6
is the same as
7÷6
Convert to a mixed number using
long division for 7 ÷ 6 = 1R1, so
7/6= 
Therefore:
3/4 − (−5/12) = 
Solution by Formulas
Apply the fractions formula for subtraction, to
3/4 − (−5/12)
and solve
(3×12) − (−5×4) 4×12
=3/6− (−20/48)
=56/48
Reduce by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor GCF( 56,48) = 8
56÷8 / 48÷8 =7/6
Convert to a mixed number using
long division for 7 ÷ 6 = 1R1, so
7/6= 
Therefore:
3/4 − (-5/12) =
