4/10 is equal to 2/5 because if you reduce 4/10 you get 2/5 which shows that they are equal.
No, this would not be a linear function. Being linear means it creates a straight line, but this function has an x squared. Anytime x^2 is in a function, the graph is a u shape, called a parabola. A simple linear function is y=x :D
Situation: Which one of the following is not equal to 100 meters?
We were given 4 different choices with corresponding values, not let's start finding the correct answer.
=> 0.100 kilometers
1 meter = 0.001 km
100 meters = 0.1 km
=> 10 hectometers
1 meter = 0.01 hm
100 meters = 1 hm
=> 10,000 centimeters
1 meter = 100 centimeters
100 meters = 10 000 cm
=> 100,000 millimeters
1 meter = 1000 mm
100 meters = 100 000 mm
<span>thus the not equal answer is hectometer</span>
Okay. When it comes to multiplying decimals, you multiply them just like you would do whole numbers. However, solving them by paper, you would add a decimal point into the answer, depending on how many numbers are behind the decimal point in the numbers being multiplied. In this case, the decimal point will go in front of two numbers, because there are two numbers behind the decimal point in -1.2 and 0.4. Know that the answer will be negative, because there is one negative and one positive number.
Multiply both numbers. -1.2 * 0.4 is -0.48. There. The product is -0.48.
