Q. Simplify. Write your answer using whole numbers and variables. 5z2−6zz
Simplify Fraction: Simplify the expression 5z2z−6z by combining like terms.First, we need to simplify the fraction5z2z. To do this, we can cancel out a z from the numerator and denominator.5z2z=5z1Now, we have 5z1−6z.
Find Common Denominator: Find a common denominator to combine the terms.Since 5z1 and 6z do not have the same denominator, we need to find a common denominator to combine them. The common denominator is 5z.5z1−6z=5z1−5z(6z⋅5z)
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication in the second term.Now, we multiply 6z by 5z to get 30z2.5z1−5z(6z×5z)=5z1−5z30z2
Combine Terms: Combine the terms over the common denominator.Now that we have a common denominator, we can combine the terms.5z1−5z30z2=5z1−30z2
Simplify Numerator: Simplify the numerator.We can't simplify 1−30z2 any further since they are not like terms.So, the final simplified expression is (1−30z2)/5z.
