Now,
x – y = \( \dfrac{-4} { 7} – \dfrac{2} { 5}\)
= \( \dfrac{-4} { 7} – \dfrac{2} { 5}\)
Taking L.C.M. we get,
=\( \dfrac{ (- 20 – 14) }{ 35}\)
= \( \dfrac{-34} { 35} \)
And
y – x = \( \dfrac{2} { 5}- \dfrac{-4} { 7} \)
= \( \dfrac{2} { 5}+ \dfrac{4} { 7} \)
Taking L.C.M. we get,
= \(\dfrac{ (14 + 20) }{ 35}\)
= \( \dfrac{34} { 35} \)
Therefore, x – y ≠ y – x
Answered by Aaryan | 1 year agoBy what number should 1365 be divided to get 31 as quotient and 32 as remainder?
Which of the following statement is true / false?
(i) \(\dfrac{ 2 }{ 3} – \dfrac{4 }{ 5}\) is not a rational number.
(ii) \( \dfrac{ -5 }{ 7}\) is the additive inverse of \( \dfrac{ 5 }{ 7}\)
(iii) 0 is the additive inverse of its own.
(iv) Commutative property holds for subtraction of rational numbers.
(v) Associative property does not hold for subtraction of rational numbers.
(vi) 0 is the identity element for subtraction of rational numbers.
If x = \( \dfrac{4 }{ 9}\), y =\( \dfrac{-7 }{ 12}\) and z = \( \dfrac{-2 }{ 3}\), then verify that x – (y – z) ≠ (x – y) – z
Subtract the sum of \(\dfrac{ – 5 }{ 7} and\dfrac{ – 8 }{ 3}\) from the sum of \(\dfrac{5 }{ 2} and \dfrac{– 11 }{ 12}\)
