Answer:

To convert larger units to smaller units, multiply. When the units are smaller, you need more of them to express the same measure. To convert smaller units to larger units, divide. When the units are larger, you need fewer of them to express the same measure.

Multiply to convert larger units to smaller units.

Divide to convert smaller units to larger units.

When the units are smaller, you need more of them to express the same measure.

When the units are larger, you need fewer of them to express the same measure.

Answer:

To convert between units, you're usually given one measure and asked to convert to another measure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Going to smaller units means going to bigger numbers so you multiply and going to bigger units means going to small. or in other words if you need to convert from a larger unit to a smaller unit Multiply. and if you need to convert from a smaller unit into a larger unit Divide. When converting customary units of measure from a larger unit to a smaller unit, multiply the the larger unit by its smaller equivalent unit.

How many real solutions does the equation y=12x-9x+4 have?
jek_recluse [69]

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation : 

                     y-(12*x^2-9*x+4)=0 

Step by step solution :<span>Step  1  :</span><span>Equation at the end of step  1  :</span><span> y - (((22•3x2) - 9x) + 4) = 0 </span><span>Step  2  :</span><span>Equation at the end of step  2  :</span><span> y - 12x2 + 9x - 4 = 0 </span><span>Step  3  :</span>Solving a Single Variable Equation :

<span> 3.1 </span>    Solve  <span> <span>y-12x2+9x-4</span> </span> = 0 

In this type of equations, having more than one variable (unknown), you have to specify for which variable you want the equation solved.
