Why do we divide by 4

1 answer:

5 0

This kind of question would actually be very dependable. So, let's suppose that we would have a number as 16. We would then have to divide this number by 4, mainly because we would want to find how many 4's would go into the number 16. But this would actually be an example. So, whatever math problem you may have, just remember this technique, how many numbers would go into that specific number.

Answer:

The missing side is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller triangle has the same exact angles and the bigger one. If you notice each side with a value is three times the smaller one. 8m times three equals 24m. So if we divide 21 by 3 we get 7

OMG PLS HELP WITH THIS IM PANICKING OMG I GOT A F IN MATH MY MOM JUST YELLED AT ME IM CRYING PLS HELP WITH THS- PLSS TELL ME I A

Answer:

3. The equivalent fractions are presented as follows;

$\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{2 \times 2}{3 \times 2} =\dfrac{4}{6}$

4. The equivalent fractions are presented as follows;

$\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{4 \times 2}{4 \times 3} =\dfrac{8}{12}$

5. The reason why it works is because $\dfrac{1}{8} + \dfrac{1}{8} = \dfrac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

3. Based on the shaded region of the given figures, the two fractions are equivalent

Mathematically, we can show the equivalency of the two fractions as follows;

$\dfrac{2}{3} =\dfrac{2}{3} \times 1 = \dfrac{2}{3} \times \dfrac{2}{2} = \dfrac{2 \times 2}{3 \times 2} =\dfrac{4}{6}$

Therefore;

$\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{2 \times 2}{3 \times 2} =\dfrac{4}{6}$

4. From the shaded region of the given figure, the fractions are equivalent

Mathematically, we have;

$\dfrac{2}{3} =\dfrac{2}{3} \times 1 = \dfrac{4}{4} \times \dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{4 \times 2}{4 \times 3} =\dfrac{8}{12}$

Therefore;

$\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{4 \times 2}{4 \times 3} =\dfrac{8}{12}$

5. The amount of salt required by the recipe = 1/4 teaspoon of salt

The measure of the spoon Jonas has = 1/8 teaspoon

When Jonas adds two 1/8 teaspoons, he gets;

$\dfrac{1}{8} + \dfrac{1}{8} = \dfrac{1 + 1}{8} = \dfrac{2}{8} = \dfrac{2 \times 1}{2 \times 4} = \dfrac{2}{2} \times \dfrac{1}{4} = 1 \times \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{1}{4}$

Therefore;

$\dfrac{1}{8} + \dfrac{1}{8} = \dfrac{1}{4}$

Two 1/8 measuring teaspoons are equivalent to one 1/4 teaspoons and therefore Jonas is able to get the 1/4 teaspoons of salt the recipe asks for b combining two 1/8 measuring teaspoons of salt he has because 1/8 + 1/8 = 1/4.

Why do you think y= ax+b is called a linear equation <br> Please help

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Y=mx+b Is a linear equasion because if you plot the x and y on a graph it always shows a straight line.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, y=7x+9,

When x is 1 y is 16, and

when x is 2 y is 23.

When you put those two points on a graph and connect the dots with a ruler, you get a straight line, and you will automatically find that when x is 3 y is 30.
