Answers & Step-by-step explanation:

#1. Insert given values:

[tex]16*\frac{1}{4} -4*6[/tex]

Simplify multiplication from left to right. Use the rule [tex]\frac{a}{b}*c =\frac{ac}{b}[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{16}{4}-4*6\\\\ 4-4*6[/tex]

Simplify multiplication:

[tex]4-24[/tex]

Simplify subtraction:

[tex]-20\\\\16a-4b=-20[/tex]

#2. Insert given values:

[tex]\frac{5*6}{32*\frac{1}{4} }[/tex]

Simplify multiplication:

[tex]\frac{30}{32*\frac{1}{4} }[/tex]

Simplify multiplication. Use the rule [tex]\frac{a}{b} *c=\frac{ac}{b}[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{30}{\frac{32}{4} }[/tex]

Simplify division:

[tex]\frac{30}{8}[/tex]

Simplify fraction:

[tex]\frac{15}{4} \\\\\frac{5b}{32a}=\frac{15}{4}[/tex]

#3. Insert given values:

[tex]12*\frac{1}{4} +(6-\frac{1}{4} -4)[/tex]  

Simplify subtraction within parentheses. Convert to fractions. Use the rule [tex]a=\frac{a}{1}[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{6}{1} -\frac{1}{4} -\frac{4}{1}[/tex]

Make all denominators the same. Multiply top and bottom by 4 (only do this to the fractions with 1 as the denominator):

[tex]\frac{24}{4}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{16}{4}[/tex]

Simplify subtraction. Subtract the numerators. The denominator will stay the same:

[tex]\frac{24}{4}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{16}{4}=\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Insert:

[tex]12*\frac{1}{4} +\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Simplify multiplication. Use the rule [tex]\frac{a}{b} *c=\frac{ac}{b}[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{12}{4} =3[/tex]

Insert:

[tex]3+\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Simplify addition. Convert the whole number to a fraction. Use the rule [tex]a=\frac{a}{1}[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{3}{1} +\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Multiply top and bottom of the first term by 4:

[tex]\frac{12}{4}+\frac{7}{4}=\frac{19}{4} \\\\12a+(b-a-4)=\frac{19}{4}[/tex]

:Done

4a + 6b = 10
2a - 4b = 12
4a + 6b = 10
4a - 8b = 24
4a + 6b = 10
-14b = 14
4a + 6b = 10
b = -1
4a - 6 = 10
a = 4
b = -1
