OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ -7x+10y }{ 4x } - \frac{ 7x-5y }{ 4x }\] Since the denominators are the same, you can subtract these just as you would any other fractions. Subtract like terms (-7x+10y-7x+5y), then keep the same denominator.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

−14x−5y/4x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did not see your post before I posted mine. Since the negative sign in the first fraction is for all the numbers, not just the 7x, make sure you distribute it as well.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes @slimjim77 that is correct.
