simplify 1/2 (x-4)

Solution

simplify

\frac{1}{2} (x - 4)

\frac{x}{2} - 2

Solution steps

\frac{1}{2} (x - 4)

Apply the distributive law:

a (b - c) = ab - a c

\frac{1}{2} (x - 4) = \frac{1}{2} x - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 4

= \frac{1}{2} x - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 4

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} x - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 4 : \frac{x}{2} - 2

= \frac{x}{2} - 2

(5 x^{4} y^{3})^{\frac{2}{3}}

\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{4}{3}

\frac{2}{9} - \frac{5}{6} \div \frac{4}{3}
