Answer:
I will be answering numbers 3), 4), and 6) (so that you get most of the concept and that you are able to solve the questions by yourself), and also 9).
Explanation:
3)
-15/4b+5/6b
So, first find the common denominator of both fractions. 4 times 6 is 24. -15/4b= -90/24b. 5/6b=20/24b. -90/24b+20/24b=-70/24b=-35/24b=-1 11/24.
4)
60m-15(4-8m)+20
What we need to do first is remove the parentheses.
60m-(15*4-15*8m)+20
=60m-60-120m+20.
So, here, we add the numbers without 'm' and the numbers with 'm.' (Always include the sign in front of the number, like in the equation, we include -60 since that's the sign in front of 60.)
60m-60-120m+20
=-60+20=-40
60m-120m=-60m
=-60m-40
6)
9y-15y+12-6y
Like I said before on number 4, we do about the exact same thing (but there are no parentheses to remove, so we skip that step.)
9y-15y+12-6y
=9y-15y-6y
=-12y+12
9)
It is basically the same thing as we did in the previous problems, just in a different way of saying it.
12x+12x+2x+2x+x+9
=28x+9 yards
