The Tangent Line Problem 1/3How do you find the slope of the tangent line to a function at a point Q when you only have that one point? This Demonstration shows that a secant line can be used to approximate the tangent line. The secant line PQ connects the point of tangency to another point P on the graph of the function. As the distance between the two points decreases, the secant line becomes closer to the tangent line.
A proportion looks like this:
It means that the quantity a,b,c and d are in the same proportion: the ratio between a and b is the same ratio between c and d.
They are particularly useful in situation when you have an example given, and you want to extrapolate the relationship for another couple.
For example, you can think of the following problem: "Five apples cost 2 dollars. How much will 8 apples cost?"
You can build the proportion
And then solve it for x:
Answer:
if he uses 1/2 for 2/3, then you can divide 2/3 and 1.2 by 2 to get the remaining soap needed to complete the wash
so to clean the last 1/3 of the car, he`ll use 1/4 of the remaining soap
the entire car needs <u><em>3/4 of a bottle of soap</em></u>
The distributive property is 15+45 = (10 + 40) + (5+5) = 50 + 10 = 60
Hope this helps you.
