How do I subtract fractions? Please explain step by step to get marked as brainliest

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Here I hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

For example lets work with this fraction

 [tex]\frac{6}{5} -\frac{3}{7}[/tex]

First you need to find a common denominator. (The number at the bottom of the fraction always.)

Multiply until you get a number both denominators go into.

For this it would be 35.

[tex]\frac{6}{5} -\frac{3}{7}[/tex]

5x7=35  7x5=35

You then have to do the same to the top as you did the bottom.

So multiply your numerators (number at the top) the same number as you did to the denominator below it.

[tex]\frac{6}{5} -\frac{3}{7}[/tex]

So 6x7=42.    

And 3x5=15

You then subtract the numerators.

42-15=27

So now you have [tex]\frac{27}{35}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{5} -\frac{3}{7}[/tex] =[tex]\frac{27}{35}[/tex]

Hope this helps! Have a great day!!

A customer paid a total of $6.00 for 68 copies at a print shop. Some of the copies were
black-and-white coples, and the rest were color copies.
.
Each black-and-white copy cost $0.08.
Each color copy cost $0.15.
.
Which system or equations can be used to find b, the number of black-and-white copies,
and c, the number of color copies that the customer paid for at the print shop?


Answers

The system or equations can be used to find b, the number of black-and-white copies,

and c, the number of color copies that the customer paid for at the print shop is

b + c = 68

b + c = 680.08b + 0.15c = 6

Given:

Total amount paid = $6.00

Total copies = 68

cost of black-and-white copy = $0.08

cost of color copy = $0.15

let

number of black-and-white copies = b

number of color copies = c

The equation:

b + c = 68

b + c = 680.08b + 0.15c = 6

Therefore, the system or equations can be used to find b, the number of black-and-white copies,

and c, the number of color copies that the customer paid for at the print shop is

b + c = 68

b + c = 680.08b + 0.15c = 6

The midpoint of GH is M( 6,-4). One endpoint is G(8,-2). Find the coordinates of endpoint H.

Answers

Using the midpoint formula, the coordinates of endpoint H are (4, -6).

The Midpoint Formula

The midpoint formula is given as: [tex](x_m, y_m) = (\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} )[/tex]

Where,

[tex](x_m, y_m)[/tex] = coordinates of the midpoint

[tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] = coordinates of the first point

[tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] = coordinates of the second point

Given the following:

[tex](x_m, y_m)[/tex] = M( 6,-4)

[tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] = G(8,-2)

[tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] = H(?, ?)

Plug in the values into the midpoint formula

[tex]M(6, -4) = (\frac{8 + x_2}{2}, \frac{-2 + y_2}{2} )[/tex]

Solve for the x-coordinate and y-coordinate separately

[tex]6 = \frac{8 + x_2}{2}[/tex]

Multiply both sides

[tex]6 \times 2 = 8 + x_2\\\\12 = 8 + x_2\\\\12 - 8 = x_2\\\\4 = x_2\\\\\mathbf{x_2 = 4}[/tex]

[tex]-4 = \frac{-2 + y_2}{2}\\\\-8 = -2 + y_2\\\\-8 + 2 = y_2\\\\-6 = y_2\\\\\mathbf{y_2 = -6}[/tex]

Therefore, using the midpoint formula, the coordinates of endpoint H are (4, -6).

Pieter wrote and solved an equation that models the number of hours it takes to dig a well to a level of 72 feet below sea level.

7h – 5(3h – 8) = –72
Which statement is true about Pieter’s solution?

1. It cannot be a fraction or decimal because the depth of the well is a whole number.

2. It must be a positive number since it represents a number of hours.

3. It must be a negative number because the depth is below sea level.

4.It cannot be greater than –72 because that is the depth of the well.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Is this the entire question? Some of it makes no sense without a diagram or something.

To get rid of A you actually have to solve the equation.

7h – 5(3h – 8) = –72        Remove the brackets

7h - 15h + 40 = - 72          Combine the like terms

- 8h + 40 = - 72                Subtract 40 from both sides

- 8h = -112                        Divide by -8

    h = 14

Well the depth is a whole number so A is true.

We don't know anything about time. But the answer is positive.

C is false because B is true.

We don't know exactly what the depth of the well is.

I would pick A, but you need the entire question.

А There are 84 boys and 72 girls in the sixth grade. Jerod says that the ratio of girls to boys is 6:7. Is he correct? Why or why not? 23 Maneuvering the Middle LLC. 2015​

Answers

Answer:

He is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

72 girls and 84 boys

Divide both numbers by 12

6 : 7

He is correct

Jerod says that the ratio of girls to boys is 6:7 is correct.

What is Ratio?

A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a and b, written a / b where b does not equal 0.

Given that in the sixth grade there are 84 boys and 72 girls

Jerod says that the ratio of girls to boys is 6:7

We need to check whether Jerod statement is correct or incorrect

Now the number of boys=84

The number of girls=72

Now divide the number of girls by number of boys

72/84

6/7

So Jerod statement is true

Hence, Jerod says that the ratio of girls to boys is 6:7 is correct.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Long division:

x^2 - 4)x^4 - 13x^2 – 25x – 12( x^2 - 9  <-------- Quotient

           x^4 -  4x^2

Subtract:       -9x^2 -  25x

                     -9x^2  + 36

                                 -25x - 36 - 12

So the remainder is -25x - 48 (Answer).

B)   If the above are correct then:

(x^2 - 4) * quotient + remainder  = the original form of  p(x).

(x^2 - 4)(x^2 -9)  - 25x - 48 = the original p(x).

p(x) = x^4 - 9x^2 - 4x^2 + 36  - 25x - 48

= x^4 - 13x^2 - 25x -12 = original p(x)
