Why 2+2=4 and not 2+2=22 ?

Mathematics

Lunna [17]3 years ago

2 + 2 = 4 because 4 is a sum of 1-digit numbers

2 + 2 ≠ 22 because 22 is the sum of 1-digit and 2-digit numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets explain some important notes:

  • The 1-digit number consists of one digit, 4 is a one-digit number
  • The 2-digit number consists of two digits, ones digit and tens digit, 23 is a 2-digit number, the ones digit is 3 and the tens digit is 2, so its value is 20 + 3
  • The 3-digit number consists of ones digit, tens digit and the hundreds digit, 123 is a 3-digit number, the ones digit is 3, the tens digit is 2 and the hundreds digit is 1, so its value is 100 + 20 + 3

∵ 2 + 2 is the addition problem of two 1-digit numbers

∴ There sum will be 4 which is also 1-digit number

∴ 2 + 2 must be 4

∵ 22 is a two digit number

∴ Its value is 20 + 2 ⇒ not 2 + 2

∴ 2 + 2 can not be 22

2 + 2 = 4 because 4 is a sum of 1-digit numbers

2 + 2 ≠ 22 because 22 is the sum of 1-digit and 2-digit numbers

If a room is 20 by 24 feet, how big is it on a floor plan where 1/2 inch represents 1 foot?
Naddik [55]
Well if you take the room being 20 x 24. Thats 480 feet. But you want how large in 1/2 inch. 1/2 inch is 1/24 of a foot. So if we take 480 feet being 1 and times it by 24. (480 x 24) You get 11,520 half inches. Brainliest would be much appreciated if you feel its deserved.

Find the degree of the polynomial<br><br> 7a3b2 – 2a4 + 4b – 15<br><br> Degree
vesna_86 [32]
When ur polynomial has more then one variable....and this one does...the degree is the highest term degree

7a^3b^2 ....this term has a degree of 5
2a^4...this term has a degree of 4
4b....this term has a degree of 1
15....this term has a degree of 0

so the highest degree term has a degree of 5....so that is the degree of this polynomial.

now if u just had 1 variable, the degree would be the highest exponent
