15 * 15 * 15 * 500 = 1,687,500. it's different from finding 45 * 500 because
15 * 15* 15 * 500 is the same as writing it as 15^3 * 500. This meaning you multiply the number 15 by itself 3 times, not add it 3 times, which is what
45 * 500 was showing. I hope this helped.
The correct answer is 12
Set up a ratio and then solve. See paper attached. (:
It looks like he used the distributive property. He multiplied 7*2. Then. 7*6. Then he multiplied them together. That is not how you multiply numbers
1. The additive identity is 0. This is because adding 0 to anything leads to the same value. Example: 0+3 = 3.
2. An equation is where you have two expressions separated by an equal sign. In your case it would be "a mathematical sentence whose verb is 'equal' (=)"
3. The multiplicative identity is 1. Multiply 1 with any number and the result is that same number. Example: 1*7 = 7.
4. An open sentence is an equation that contains one or more variables. An example would be x+2 = 4. The reason why we call it open is because the true or false nature of the sentence is up in the air until we know what x is. If we knew that x = 3 for instance, then x+2 = 4 would be false since 3+2 = 4 is false. If we nailed down what x was then it would go from open to closed.
5. The symmetric property is that if a = b then b = a. Think of a mirror how the image reverses.
