Which Expressions Are Equivalent To The First One? I Don't Understand How To Determine That So Please

Answer:

  (a) -(x+7)/y

  (b) (x+7)/-y

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways you can show expressions are equivalent. Perhaps the easiest and best is to put them in the same form. For an expression such as this, I prefer the form of answer (a), where the minus sign is factored out and the numerator and denominator have positive coefficients.

The given expression with -1 factored out is ...

  [tex]\dfrac{-x-7}{y}=\dfrac{1(x+7)}{y}=\boxed{-\dfrac{x+7}{y}} \quad\text{matches A}[/tex]

Likewise, the expression of (b) with the minus sign factored out is ...

  [tex]\dfrac{x+7}{-y}=\boxed{-\dfrac{x+7}{y}}[/tex]

On the other hand, simplifying expression (c) gives something different.

  [tex]\dfrac{-x-7}{-y}=\dfrac{-(x+7)}{-(y)}=\dfrac{x+7}{y} \qquad\text{opposite the given expression}[/tex]

__

Another way you can write the expression is term-by-term with the terms in alpha-numeric sequence (so they're more easily compared).

  Given: (-x-7)/y = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

  (a) -(x+7)/y = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

  (b) (x+7)/(-y) = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

  (c) (-x-7)/(-y) = (x/y) +(7/y) . . . . not the same.

__

Of course, you need to know the use of the distributive property and the rules of signs.

  a(b+c) = ab +ac

  -a/b = a/(-b) = -(a/b)

  -a/(-b) = a/b

__

Summary: The given expression matches (a) and (b).

_____

Additional comments

Sometimes, when I'm really stuck trying to see if two expressions are equal, I subtract one from the other. If the difference is zero, then I know they are the same. Looking at (b), we could compute ...

  [tex]\left(\dfrac{-x-7}{y}\right)-\left(\dfrac{x+7}{-y}\right)=\dfrac{-y(-x-7)-y(x+7)}{-y^2}\\\\=\dfrac{xy+7y-xy-7y}{-y^2}=\dfrac{0}{-y^2}=0[/tex]

Yet another way to check is to substitute numbers for the variables. It is a good idea to use (at least) one more set of numbers than there are variables, just to make sure you didn't accidentally find a solution where the expressions happen to be equal. We can use (x, y) = (1, 2), (2, 3), and (3, 5) for example.

The given expression evaluates to (-1-7)/2 = -4, (-2-7)/3 = -3, and (-3-7)/5 = -2.

(a) evaluates to -(1+7)/2 = -4, -(2+7)/3 = -3, -(3+7)/5 = -2, same as given

(b) evaluates to (1+7)/-2 = -4, (2+7)/-3 = -3, (3+7)/-5 = -2, same as given

(c) evaluates to (-1-7)/-2 = 4, different from given

Answers

Hope this helps! Have a good day

Your monthly allowance and your friend's monthly allowance is $50 and $40 respectively.

From the given tape diagram, the ratio of your monthly allowance to your friend's monthly allowance is 5:4.

What is the ratio?

The ratio is defined as the comparison of two quantities of the same units that indicates how much of one quantity is present in the other quantity.

Here, 5+4=9

Now, your monthly allowance = 5/9 × 90

= 50

So, your friend's monthly allowance = 90-50 = 40

Therefore, your monthly allowance and your friend's monthly allowance is $50 and $40 respectively.

Determine the sum of the first terms

First, we calculate the common ratio (r)

What is the weight on Earth of a girl with a mass of 30 Kg? The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/ s 2.

ex

Answers

Answer: If, on earth, your mass is 30kg, then your weight is m*g which is mass (30kg) times Earth gravity (9.8m/s^2) = 294 N.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of a girl would be 294 N on Earth with a mass of 30 Kg.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by the addition, subtract, divide, and multiply built-in functions.

+ Addition operation: Adds values on either side of the operator.

For example 4 + 2 = 6

- Subtraction operation: Subtracts the right-hand operand from the left-hand operand.

for example 4 -2 = 2

* Multiplication operation: Multiplies values on either side of the operator

For example 4*2 = 8

The weight on Earth of a girl would be the product of the mass and acceleration due to gravity on Earth

So the required solution would be:

⇒ weight  = mass × acceleration due to gravity on Earth

⇒ weight  = 30 × 9.8

⇒ weight  = 294 N.

Hence, the weight of a girl would be 294 N on Earth with a mass of 30 Kg.

Answer:

Bob- 33, Larry- 21, Joe- 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation with x=the amount of time Larry spent studying. x+(x-12)+2(x-12)=96. Distribute and combine: 4x-36=96. Add 36 to both sides (4x=132), and then divide by 4 (x=33). Larry studied 33 minutes, subtract 12 to find Bob, and then double Bob's time to get Joe's study time.

What is the area of the shaded region?
(2571 - 48) cm
O (2517 - 30) cm
(2517 - 24) cm
(257-12) cm

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a circle with a partially shaded region. First, we need to determine the area of the whole circle. To do this, we need the measurement of the radius of the circle:

Use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the other leg of the right triangle inside the circle:

5^2 = 3^2 + x^2

x = 4

The radius is 4 + 1 cm = 5 cm

So the area of the circle is A = pi*r^2

A = 3.14 * (5)^2  

A = 25pi cm^2

To solve for the area of the shaded region:

Ashaded = Acircle - Atriangles

we need to solve for the area of the triangles:

A = 1/2 *b*h

A = 1/2 *6 * 5

A = 15 cm^2

Atriangles = 2 * 15  

Atriangles = 30 cm^2

Ashaded = 25pi - 30
