Answer:
f = -15/4
Step-by-step explanation:
f+1/4= -7/2
Subtract 1/4 from each side
f+1/4-1/4= -7/2-1/4
f = -7/2 -1/4
Get a common denominator of 4
f = -7/2*/2/2 - 1/4
f = -14/4-1/4
f = -15/4
Answer:
[tex]f = -\frac{15}{4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]f + \frac{1}{4} = -\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
-1/4 -1/4 Subtract 1/4 from each side of the equation to isolate f.
[tex]f = -\frac{7}{2} -\frac{1}{4}[/tex] in order to subtract these fractions, we need
to make both fractions have the same denominator.
2 x 2 = 4, so we can just multiply the top and bottom
by 2 to get -14/4. Now we can subtract the fractions.
[tex]f = -\frac{14}{4} -\frac{1}{4}[/tex] Since the denominators are the same now, ignore
the bottom and focus on subtracting the numerators.
-14 - 1 = -15.
[tex]f = -\frac{15}{4}[/tex] This is the final answer.
