2. Aki has a 2 1/4 metre length of copper
piping.
a) He uses2/3 of it for a job.
What length of pipe is left?
b) He uses 1/8of a metre from the pipe
left for another job, how much of the
original is left?

a)3/4

b)5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

a)2 1/4x (1-2/3)=9/4 x1/3=3/4

b)3/4-1/8=6/8-1/8=5/8

it has changed from the width and the height.

step-by-step explanation:

option 3 . (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
