A very simple example problem to satisfy the required above is,
"John has 8 apples and 17 oranges. How much more oranges does John has than apple?"
To answer this item, one needs to subtract the number of apples from the number of oranges. This is as shown below,
D = 17 - 8 = 9
The concept of "how much more than" is linked to finding the difference between the numbers.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
A(1, 1), B(2, 4), C(4, 2)
i) Slope of AB
Thus, slope of AB is 3.
ii) Point slope form
The point slope form of a line can be written as:
The point intercept form of line can be written as:
The line is parallel to AB and contains point C(4, 2). Since line p is parallel to AB, line p will have the same slope as line AB
Putting values, we get,
which is the required slope intercept equation of line p.
Answer:
A.Both of the students did the problem correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
B. Nikki multiplied the fraction(8/3) to the items in the parentheses. Then multiplied each side with 3. Jon did the opposite. He first removed the fraction by multiplying each side by 3. Then he multiplied 2 to the items in the paranthesis.
C. I prefer Jon's method. Fractions can be tricky. I prefer to remove them as soon as possible. This time the items in the paranthesis had whole numbers. But had any of them been a fraction too, the problem would have gotten a lot more tricky and it would very easy to make a mistake or miscalculate something.
