If you treat multiplication as repeated a<span>ddition, then y</span>es, Juan is correct. Only equal groups can be multiplied.

Answer:  The answer is yes.


Step-by-step explanation: According to Jaun, when we put together unequal groups, we can only add. We are to check whether he is correct or not.

Let us consider the addition of unequal groups and let the groups be linear polynomials (x-1), (x-2) and (x-3).

Then, adding these, we have

(x-1)+(x-3)+(x-4) = x-1+x-3+x-4 = 3x-8. Therefore, addition is the only thing that is possible here. We cannot multiply or use any other mathematical operation.

Again, let us consider the addition of equal groups (x-3), (x-3) and (x-3). Adding these, we have

(x-3)+(x-3)+(x-3) = 3x-9 = 3(x-3), i.e., addition can be written in multiplicative form too in case of equal groups.

Thus, when we put together unequal groups, addition is the only operation possible. Jaun is absolutely correct.

How many solutions does -46+23=46x+23
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−46+23=46x+23

(−46+23)=46x+23(Combine Like Terms)

−23=46x+23

−23=46x+23

Step 2: Flip the equation.

46x+23=−23

Step 3: Subtract 23 from both sides.

46x+23−23=−23−23

46x=−46

Step 4: Divide both sides by 46.

46x/46 = -46/46

together,sarah's two cats have the same mass as her dog,11 kg.the mass of one cat is 1500 g greater than the mass of the other.
Alika [10]
Let (a) be the first cat
let (b) be the second cat
a +b=11kg-----(1)
a=b+1500g⇒(1.5 kg)-------(2)
so now u have a system of two unknowns
a=11-b
substitute a in (2)
11-b=b+1.5
11-1.5=2b
2b=9.5
b=9.5/2=4.75
subs. b in (1)
a+b=11
a+4.75=11
a=11-4.75=6.25
so cat (a) is 6.25 kg
and (b) is 4.75 kg
hope I helped

A book contains 120 pages and each page 35 lines how many pages will the book contains if every page has 24 lines
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

If there will be 24 lines on all pages, there will be 175 pages in the book

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find out how much lines does the book have in total, so we multiply the number of pages by the number of lines on the page. So we get.....

120 x 35 = 4200

Now in order to find out how much pages will the book have when a page will have 14 lines we divide the number of lines by 24 and we get......

4200 / 24 = 175
