If the number is x, then:
6x+1= (x-1)^2
Now we just need to simplify it
6x+1=(x-1)*(x-1)
6x+1=x^2-2x+1
8x=x^2
8=x
The number is 8.
To check the answer
6*8+1=7^2
49=49
correct :)
3/5 is smaller. if you look at the ruler 3/5 will be first and then 3/8th
Answer:
Associative property of addition
Step-by-step explanation:
(4+10)+(-10)
We want to change the parentheses to
4 + ( 10 + -10)
We can use the Associative property of addition
( a+b) + c = a+ ( b+c)
Answer:
From least to greatest
23* 1/4, 23* 2/2, 23* 13/5
Explanation
In order to do this without multiplication, place the fractions in ascending order.
The denominators of these fractions have 20 as a common multiple.
2/2 • 10 = 20/20
1/4 • 5 = 5/20
13/5 • 4 = 52/20
From this it logically follows that the fractions in ascending order are:
1/4, 2/2, 13/5
Therefore the products in ascending order are:
23* 1/4, 23* 2/2, 23* 13/5
