If you divide 36 by 4, it equals 9, so each side is 9. Then you multiply 9 to 9, which equals 81 in^2.
+
equals
.
First, simplify
to
and also
to
. Your problem should look like:
+
.
Second, find the least common denominator of
and
to get 9.
Third, make the denominators the same as the least common denominator (LCD). Your problem should look like:
+
.
Fourth, simplify to get the denominators the same. Your problem should look like:
+
.
Fifth, join the denominators. Your problem should look like:
.
Sixth, simplify. Your problem should look like:
, which is the answer.
The slope is 1
All you need to do is look on the graph and count how many times you go up or down and to the side and then divide. Super simple!
3/33 can be reduced to 1/11 by dividing by 3 on the top and bottom.
1/11 is not equal to 1/10. Although they have the same numerator or number on top, 1, they don't have the same number in the bottom.
So they are not equivalent.
Hope this helps.
