How is multiplying fractions the same as multiplying whole numbers and different

Well one similarity is that since you have to multiply, integer rules still apply and that you can also multiply variables. A difference is that with fractions, you have to make a number into an improper fraction rather than just the regular way which would most likely be the whole number with a decimal.

Answer:

Different: Because you need to make it a fraction not a whole number

Similar: Because you are both multiplying numbers

Reasoning:

The reason for this is because if you are multiplying 1/4 to 2 it equals 2/4.

But if you are multiplying 14 and 2 you don't get 2/4 you get 28.

How do i solve 5y - 10 = -25?
viva [34]
So to find the answer you want to isolate the y. So the first thing you want to do is to move everything to the opposite side of the = sign. You start by adding 10 to both sides.
10+ 5y -10 = -25 +10  
 5y = -15.
the tens cancel out on the left side and on the right you get left with -15/
Since y is being multiplied by 5 you always want to do the opposite so you divide by 5.
5y/5 = -15/5
y = -3
It's hard to explain but you just have to remember that what you do to one side you must do to the other to keep the equation balanced.

Find the area lying outside r=6cos(theta) and inside r=3+3cos(theta)
Sloan [31]
The area bounded by the 2 parabolas is A(θ) = 1/2∫(r₂²- r₁²).dθ between limits θ = a,b... 

<span>the limits are solution to 3cosθ = 1+cosθ the points of intersection of curves. </span>
<span>2cosθ = 1 => θ = ±π/3 </span>

<span>A(θ) = 1/2∫(r₂²- r₁²).dθ = 1/2∫(3cosθ)² - (1+cosθ)².dθ </span>
<span>= 1/2∫(3cosθ)².dθ - 1/2∫(1+cosθ)².dθ </span>
<span>= 9/8[2θ + sin(2θ)] - 1/8[6θ + 8sinθ +sin(2θ)] .. </span>
<span>.............where I have used ∫(cosθ)².dθ=1/4[2θ + sin(2θ)] </span>
<span>= 3θ/2 +sin(2θ) - sin(θ) </span>

<span>Area = A(π/3) - A(-π/3) </span>
<span>= 3π/6 + sin(2π/3) -sin(π/3) - (-3π/6) - sin(-2π/3) + sin(-π/3) </span>
<span>= π.</span>
