Yes, \( \frac{4}{-9} \) is equivalent to \( -\frac{4}{9} \).
In fraction notation, the negative sign can be placed in the numerator, denominator, or in front of the fraction. So:
\[ \frac{4}{-9} = -\frac{4}{9} = \frac{-4}{9} \]
All these representations are equal.
The fraction \(-\frac{4}{-9}\) simplifies to \(\frac{4}{9}\).
When you divide a negative by a negative, the result is positive. Therefore:
\[ -\frac{4}{-9} = \frac{4}{9} \]
So, \(-4/-9\) is equivalent to \(\frac{4}{9}\).
The expression \(-\left(\frac{4}{9}\right)\) is simply the negative of \(\frac{4}{9}\).
So,
\[ -\left(\frac{4}{9}\right) = -\frac{4}{9} \]
This means that \(-\left(\frac{4}{9}\right)\) is equivalent to \(-4/9\).
