Using the breaking apart method,what is the best way to multiply 8 by 7?

1 answer:

5 0

If we multiply 8 and 7 we get the answer:
8 x 7 = 56
Now we are going to break apart the number in such a way that we still get the answer 56.
we can split 8 into 2 equal parts 4 and 4, so
8 = 4+4
but 7 cannot break apart in equal part so,
(4+4) x 7 = 56
we can also add 7, 8 times or add 8 7 times and still get the answer 56,
7+7+7+7+7+7+7+7=56
8+8+8+8+8+8+8 = 56

Consider the line shown on the graph. Enter the

Semenov [28]

<h2>Solution -</h2>

From the graph, we concluded that line passes through the points (0, 3) and (1, 4) respectively.

So, slope of the line (m) passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is

m = d - b/ c - a

<h3>So, on substituting the values, we get </h3>

m = 4 - 3 / 1 - 0 = 1/1 = 1

Also, line makes an intercept of 3 units in positive direction of y - axis.

So, c = 3

<h3>So, Equation of line is given by</h3>

y = mx + c

y = 1 × x + 3

<h3>Alternative Method :-</h3>

We know, Equation of line passing through the points (a,b) and (c, d) is given by

y - b = d - b / c - a (x - a)

a = 0

b = 3

c = 1

d = 4

<h3>So, on substituting these values in above result, we get :-</h3>

y - 3 = 4 - 3 /1 - 0 ( x - 0 )

y - 3 = 1/1 ( x - 0 )

y - 3 = x

<h3>Different forms of equations of a straight line :-</h3>

1. Equations of horizontal and vertical lines

Equation of line parallel to x - axis passes through the point (a, b) is y = b.

Equation of line parallel to y - axis passes through the point (a, b) is x = a.

<h3>2. Point-slope form equation of line</h3>

Equation of line passing through the point (a, b) having slope m isy - b = m(x - a)

<h3>3. Slope-intercept form equation of line</h3>

Equation of line which makes an intercept of c units on y axis and having slope m is y = mx + c.

<h3>4. Intercept Form of Line</h3>

Equation of line which makes an intercept of a and b units on x - axis and y axis respectively is x/a + y/b = 1.

<h3>5. Normal form of Line</h3>

Equation of line which is at a distance of p units from the origin and perpendicular makes an angle B with the positive X-axis is x cosB + y sinB = p.

Owning a small and successful business isn't easy! There is a monthly cost of shipping supplies and

Answer:

$C(x)=24,000+19,200x$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Mathematical Modeling</u>

To model a real-life situation, a mathematical model can be constructed in such a way it accurately represents the variables measured in the system.

This problem requires to build a model for the yearly cost of a small and successful business.

The first data is the fixed monthly cost or the money the owner must pay regardless of the number of employees he hires. This cost includes shipping supplies and products for $2,000. To operate for a full year, the fixed cost is 12*$2,000=$24,000.

The other component of the cost function is the variable cost of x employees. Given each employee costs $1,600 each month, having x employees cost 1,600x each month. For a full year, the variable cost will be

12*1,600x=19,200x.

We finally form the total cost function:

$\boxed{C(x)=24,000+19,200x}$
