What would the answer be for this equation 7x/20 - 5x/12

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{15} x$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{7x}{20} - \frac{5x}{12}$

$\frac{3 \times 7x}{3 \times 20} - \frac{5 \times 5x}{5 \times 12}$

$\frac{21x}{60} - \frac{25x}{60}$

$\frac{21x - 25x}{60} = (21 - 25)x = - 4x$

$\frac{ - 4x}{60} = - \frac{ x}{15}$

$\boxed{\green{= \frac{1}{15} x}}$

295 X 3 =<br> What is the distributive property of multiplication

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

295 x 3 = 885

The distributive property is when you distriute numbers if they are getting multiplied by the same number.

Example:

Original Equation: A(B+C)

Distribute the equation so that B and C are by itself.

New Equation: AxB + AxC

This is distributive property.

ILL GIVE BRAINIEST

aleksley [76]

Answer: y=5x/2 - 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-2.5-2.5)/(0-2)

m=-5/(-2)

m=5/2

y=mx+b

y=5x/2 + b

-2.5=5(0)/2 + b

-2.5=0 + b

b=-2.5

y=5x/2 - 2.5
