Answer:
<u>The correct answer is 58 1/2 feet. See below to understand the difference of both methods.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information provided to us for solving the question using both methods:
Area of each student = 4 1/2 square feet
Number of students = 13
2. Let's use the first method to solve the question:
4 1/2 = 9/2 (Improper fraction because the numerator, 9 is bigger than the denominator, 2)
9/2 * 13 = 117/2
<u>117/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>
3. Let's use the second method to solve the question:
4 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 (Using addition to rewrite the fraction)
(4 + 1/2) * 13 = (4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) (Distributive property of the multiplication)
(4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) = 52 + 13/2 = 52 + 6 1/2
<u>52 + 6 1/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We have an extremely large equation and are asked to divide it, so let's solve it step-by-step :
Remove the parenthesis to make it easier to read :

Multiply the numerators :

Multiply the denominators :

Apply the negative rule :

Cancel the common factor which is 18 :

Apply the addition exponent rule :

Subtract :

Apply the rule for y :

Subtract :

Cancel the common factor of z^3 :

A. Geometric
b. a curve sloping steeply upwards (exponential)
c. nth term an = a1r^(n-1)
nth term = 4(4)^(n-1)
Answer:
(-4 , 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-axis is the horizontal line. In this case, if you are reflecting over the x-axis, you are flipping the sign of the y-coordinate.
Same with the y-axis. If you are reflecting over the y-axis, you are flipping the sign of the x-coordinate.
In this case, reflect across the x-axis. Flip the sign of the y: (x , y)
(-4 , -8) reflected over the x-axis is (-4 , 8).

Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/4 - 1 3/4 Because the denominator are already the same, all you have to do is make it a mixed number and subtract. To do that you multiply the whole number to the denominator and add that new number to the numerator. So you would then have.
9/4 - 7/4
Keep the denumerator the same and subtract the numerators.
2/4
Then simplify
1/2
