Question

2) 45+ 17 = 62

3) X + 5/6 = 7/16

4) Y + 1/7 = 5/8

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

2) true

3) X = -19/48

4) Y = 27/56

Explanation:

3) Subtract 5/6 from both sides

X = 7/16 -5/6 = (7·6 -16·5)/(16·6) = (42 -80)/96

X = -19/48

__

4) Subtract 1/7 from both sides

Y = 5/8 -1/7 = (5·7 -8·1)/(8·7)

Y = 27/56
