100 POINTS PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!! Explain the concept of using cancellation to reduce fractions.

Mathematics
1 answer:
morpeh [17]3 years ago
5 0

Cancelling fractions is also called simplifying fractions. Basically, a fraction can be made simpler by dividing the top and bottom by the same number. Both the top and bottom must divide evenly for you to simplify the fraction.

How do you reduce fractions before multiplying?

The first step when multiplying fractions is to multiply the two numerators. The second step is to multiply the two denominators. Finally, simplify the new fractions. The fractions can also be simplified before multiplying by factoring out common factors in the numerator and denominator.

Got this from google, hope it's close to what you were looking for.

Answer:

  • y = -1/3x  - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Slope intercept form:</u>

  • y = mx + b

<u>Use two points from the graph:</u>

  • (0, -8) and (3, -9)

<u>The first point is the y-intercept: </u>

  • b = -8

<u>Find the slope using the slope formula:</u>

  • m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
  • m = (-9 - (-8))/3 = -1/3

<u>The equation is:</u>

  • y = -1/3x  - 8

A spinner and 4 cards are shown below:
yan [13]

Answer: 1 over 20

Step-by-step explanation: If the spinner has 5 parts to it at purple is one of those parts then the spinner has a 1/5 chance of it landing there.

If there are 4 cards and 1 of them are pink then there is a 1/4 chance of picking pink(if done randomly)

So if we mutiply 1/4 and 1/5, we get 1/20

That is how I arrived at my answer of 1 over 20

NeTakaya
(3, –2) and (6, 2)First, we must establish slope...m=(y-y1)/(x-x1)m=(-2-2)/(3-6)m=-4/-3m=4/3Point slope formula is...y-y1=m(x-x1)Let's select either coordinate.  I randomly select the first (3, –2)...y--2=4/3(x-3)Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number...y+2=4/3(x-3)This corresponds to the first answer.Standard form...Ax+By=Cy+2=(4/3)x-4y=(4/3)x-6-(4/3)x+y=-6Multiply both sides by 3...-4x+3y=-18This also corresponds to the first answer. How about the second coordinate, (6, 2)...y-y1=m(x-x1)y-2=(4/3)(x-6)Let's convert it into standard form..y-2=(4/3)x-8y=(4/3)x-6-(4/3)x+y=-6Multiply both sides by 3...-4x+3y=-18

So I don't know to solve this <br>​
Kruka [31]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

When a slope is undefined, it is always x = ?

The point (-5, -8) tells us that x = -5

Option A also has a point with x = -5
