For this question you can say:
1/2 = 8/16
so now you can add easily:
9/16 + 8/16 = 17/16 and that's the simplest fraction but you can also say:
17/16 = 1.0625 :)))
i hope this is helpful
have a nice day
Ali's solution is incorrect.
Ali had to add both the terms and should get 10y answer, and not multiply both terms and get answer 9y^2 which is wrong.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ali simplifies the expression 9y+y to 9y2. We need to identify if Ali's solution is correct or incorrect.
Ali's solution is incorrect.
Reason:
We are given the expression: 9y+y
When we add two like terms ( terms having the same variable and exponent), we add the coefficients of both like terms.
In our case 9y+y = 10y
Whereas Ali has done multiplication of both terms and not addition.
In multiplication we add the exponents of the same variables i.e 9y+y = 9y^2
So, Ali had to add both the terms and should get 10y answer, and not multiply both terms and get answer 9y^2 which is wrong.
