Nice job YNH sorry I had to go somewhere.
okay after you do the multiplication and I'll guide you through simplification okay : )
I would say cancel numbrs but i'm assuming this is difficult for our friend so just multiuply numerator by the other numerator and do the same for the denomenator the answer will be negitve then simplify it.
Thanks for your mild humor but this isn't a chating area if you would like to chat use private message.
Yup I appreciate both of your efforts Thanks I didn't really want a direct answer because this is really a place to help people find the answer not give them it LOL so I was curious on were I should go with that problem....THANKS : )
Ha very funny..thanks LOL
oooooh yeah I definetly could thanks YNH : ) : ) now i see my mistake.
okay well when carring like terms from the other side of the problem you would have to subtract which would be
1x
which in turn would leave me with negative 20 then I divide that by positive 4 and would I get a positive five or a negitive?
I'm just not asking for you to physically stae the answer but point me in the right direction. yup so I did like terms but when I do the -12 and the eight do I leave the -12 there and subtract 8?
