Answer:
A statement, also known as an axiom, which is taken to be true without proof. Postulates are the basic structure from which lemmas and theorems are derived.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Addition Postulate: If you have one apple and Sally has one apple, when you both add the same quantity to your existing number of apples, you'll still have the same number of apples. Using algebra, the postulate states:
If x = y, then x + 4 = y + 4
The Subtraction Postulate: If you have ten apples and Sally has ten apples, when you both subtract the same quantity of apples from your existing number of apples, you'll still have the same number of apples.
If x = y, then x - 3 = y - 3
Without being repetitive, these same principles apply to both multiplication and division.
The Multiplication Postulate: If x = y, then x * 3 = y * 3
The Division Postulate: If x = y, then x / 7 = y / 7
for 1 batch of pancake = 2 2/3 = 8/3 cups
for 2 1/2 = 5/2 pancake = 8/3 * 5/2 = 40/6 cups = 6 4/6 cups
Addition: negative four plus negative four plus negative four equals negative twelve
Multiplication: negative four times three equals negative twelve
Division: twelve divided by 3 equals negative four
Answer:
2.7 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
2x1.08=2.16
1/2x1.08=0.54
2.16
+ <u>0.54</u>
2.70
2.70 = 2.7
