The property of one permits you to multiply or divide the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same number without cha

nging the value of the fraction. Is there a property of one for addition? Support your answer using examples

<span>There is not a property of "1" for addition, but the identity property in this case uses "0" instead. If a number is increased by 1, the value will necessary be increased or decreased by the amount added or subtracted. However, if the number either adds or subtracts zero, then value will be left unchanged. Examples: 3+1 = 4, but 3+0 = 3,</span>

Explain why the two figures below are similar. Use complete sentences and provide evidence to support your explanation. (10 poin

alekssr [168]

Answer:

<em>The two figures are similar as the ratio of corresponding distances and slope of corresponding lines are EQUAL.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Noting the coordinates of points,

C(-1,6), D(3,4) , E(2,3) , F(3,0), G(1,-2) , A(0,1) , B(-2,2)

J(4.5,3.5), K(6.5,2.5), L(6,2), M(6.5,0.5) , N(5.5,-0.5) , H(5,1) , I(4,1.5)

using the distance formula = $\sqrt{(x-x1)^{2} + (y-y1)^{2} }$

we find that,

CD= $\sqrt{20}$ and JK= $\sqrt{5}$

thus, ratio of CD to JK is 2.

Similarly find ratio of DE to KL and so on, the ratio remains same.

Further one can even comment on the slopes of corresponding lines been equal.

Thus the figures turn out to be similiar to each other

Find the GCF of each pair of monomials. <br> 1). 20, 45x

Helga [31]

20 and 45x

We look for a number that can go into both numbers.

5 into 20 is 4 and 5 into 45x is 9x.

5: 20 45x

4 9x

So no other number can go into 4 and 9x again.

So the GCF of 20 and 45x is 5.

Hope this explains it.

Let A be a set of numbers.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

a. closed under addition and multiplication

b. not closed under addition but closed under multiplication.

c. not closed under addition and multiplication

d. closed under addition and multiplication

e. not closed under addition but closed under multiplication

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

Let A be a set of all integers divisible by 5.

Let $x,y$ ∈A such that $x=5m\,,\,y=5n$

Find $x+y,xy$

$x+y=5m+5n=5(m+n)$

So, $x+y$ is divisible by 5.

$xy=(5m)(5n)=25mn=5(5mn)$

So,

$xy$ is divisible by 5.

Therefore, A is closed under addition and multiplication.

b.

Let A = { 2n +1 | n ∈ Z}

Let $x,y$ ∈A such that $x=2m+1\,,\,y=2n+1$ where m, n ∈ Z.

Find $x+y,xy$

$x+y=2m+1+2n+1=2m+2n+2=2(m+n+1)$

So,

$x+y$ ∉ A

$xy=(2m+1)(2n+1)=4mn+2m+2n+1=2(2mn+m+n)+1$

So,

$xy$ ∈ A

Therefore, A is not closed under addition but A is closed under multiplication.

c.

$Let A=\{2,5,8,11,14,...\}$

Let $x=2,y=5$ but $x+y=2+5=7$ ∉A

Also,

$xy=2(5)=10$ ∉A

Therefore, A is not closed under addition and multiplication.

d.

Let A = { 17n: n∈Z}

Let $x,y$ ∈ A such that $x=17n,y=17m$

Find x + y and xy

$x+y=17n+17m=17(n+m)$

$xy=(17m)(17n)=289mn=17(17mn)$

So,

$x+y,xy$ ∈ A

Therefore, A is closed under addition and multiplication.

e.

Let A be the set of nonzero real numbers.

Let $x,y$ ∈ A such that $x=-1,y=1$

Find x + y

$x+y=-1+1=0$

So,

$x+y$ ∈ A

Also, if x and y are two nonzero real numbers then xy is also a non-zero real number.

Therefore, A is not closed under addition but A is closed under multiplication.
