@qweqwe123123123123111 Is this the right answer?
Would it be 22x = 44???
Quick and dirty here, change everything to a common denominator of 15: (12x-9)/15 - (20-10x)/15 = (15)/15 Now we can just get rid of the denominators: 12x -9 -20 -10x = 15 Combining terms gives us: 12x -10x -9 -20 = 15 2x - 29 = 15 isolate x: 2x = 15+29 --> 2x = 44 x = 22
No. If you have a minus before the fraction the signals inside it will change
so you have 12 + 10, and not 12 -10
@qweqwe123123123123111 Is right, because that's what I have too?
which is the right answer? Figure it out for me please!!! :D
mine
I am sure
The sign only changes if you're multiplying or dividing terms
but that is the sameas multpiplying what is inside the fraction by minus 1
All that's going on here is addition and subtraction. "Scaling" a fraction doesn't change any signs.
you are wrong. Go ask your teachers
@JuanTelo Is correct! :D
