Explain why it is necessary to rename 4 1/4 if you subtract 3/4 from it

Mathematics

You would rename four and one fourth when subtracted from three fourths because when you subtract the fractions you get a different fraction for your answer.
4 \frac{1}{4}- \frac{3}{4}= 3 \frac{1}{2}
so you would said three and one half instead of four and one fourth.
Hope I helped!

The first two steps in determining the solution set of the system of equations, y = -x2 + 4x + 12 and y=-3x + 24, algebraically
madreJ [45]

Answer:

(3, 15) and (4, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

x2 - 7x+12 = 0 factors to (x - 4)(x - 3) = 0, and so x:  {3, 4}.

Since y= -3x + 24, y = 15 when x = 3 and y = 12 when x = 4.  The solutions are thus (3, 15) and (4, 12).  This is the third answer choice.
