Solve. t+7/5 + -4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Umm the best you can do there is simplify the 7/5 and -4

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

solve, as in meaning, "simplify"? and did you mean \(\bf \cfrac{t+7}{5}+\quad -4?\)

OpenStudy (swagster23780):

Yes Thats Wat I Meant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh in that case, you need to have the -4 have a common denominator with the other term to combine it, what form of 1 can you multiply by to have a common denominator?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf \cfrac{t+7}{5}+\quad -4 \iff \cfrac{t+7}{5}-4\) use "5" as the LCD and combine the numerators and simplify them :)

OpenStudy (swagster23780):

S Wat The Answer

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\huge S?\) that's new

OpenStudy (swagster23780):

Sorry Typo I Meant So

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

notice the fractions, is just a fractons addition \(\bf \cfrac{t+7}{5}+\quad -4 \iff \cfrac{t+7}{5}-4 \iff \cfrac{t+7}{5}-\cfrac{4}{1} \\ \quad \\ \textit{thus, just use }{\color{brown}{ \large 5}}\textit{ as the LCD}\)
