You find a common denominator, for example, if you want to subtract 3/4 minus 1/2 you would have to multiply 1/2 by 2/2, which equals 2/4, then you can do 3/4-2/4, which is 1/4. Sorry if it’s a bit confusing, hope it helps!

Answer:

When solving fractions with different denominators, you first need to make the denominators the same.

Example:

\frac{1}{2} -\frac{1}{4}

You need to make sure the denominators are the same.

Can 2 get multiply by something and will be 4?

The answer is yes, if you multiply 2 by 2, it will change the 2 to 4. You have to multiply the equation \frac{1}{2} by  \frac{4}{4} (which is also equivalent to 1) and which change the equation to \frac{2}{4}.

And now you can subtract because the denominators are the same.

Hope this helps!

Look at the graph of the linear function. On a coordinate plane, a line goes through 4 points. Point A is (negative 2, negative
kondor19780726 [428]

Using it's concept, the rate of change between point C and point D is of 2.

<h3>What is the average rate of change of a function?</h3>

The average rate of change of a function is given by the <u>change in the output divided by the change in the input</u>. Hence, over an interval [a,b], the rate is given as follows:

r = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}

Considering the points of the given linear function, we have that:

  • Point C: f(1) = 2.
  • Point D: f(2) = 4.

Hence the rate of change between point C and point D is given by:

r = (4 - 2)/(2 - 1) = 2.

According to the graph above,what is the unit rate of a human's heartless per minute​
kari74 [83]

The unit rate for the graph above is 60 heartbeats per minute. Half of 2 is 1 so go to the 1 min. mark and go up until you reach the line graph and it says 60. Do the same for the 2 min. mark and go up until you reach the line graph and it'll say 120. 60 ÷60=1 and 120 ÷ 60= 2
