What is a postulate?

Mathematics

zloy xaker [14]3 years ago

Answer:

A statement, also known as an axiom, which is taken to be true without proof. Postulates are the basic structure from which lemmas and theorems are derived.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Addition Postulate: If you have one apple and Sally has one apple, when you both add the same quantity to your existing number of apples, you'll still have the same number of apples. Using algebra, the postulate states:

If x = y, then x + 4 = y + 4

The Subtraction Postulate: If you have ten apples and Sally has ten apples, when you both subtract the same quantity of apples from your existing number of apples, you'll still have the same number of apples.

If x = y, then x - 3 = y - 3

Without being repetitive, these same principles apply to both multiplication and division.

The Multiplication Postulate: If x = y, then x * 3 = y * 3

The Division Postulate: If x = y, then x / 7 = y / 7

liberstina [14]

Answer:

m = - 16/10

= - 1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

m2 + 8m

(the - 16 here is divided into 10 m's as you can see in m2 and 8m)

So, in order to find out what 1m is, you have to <em>divide</em> - 16 by 10, which gives you - 1.6

Good luck!

The sum of 3 odd consecutive integers are 93. find the 3 integers
Solnce55 [7]
Let, Your Integers = x, x+2, x+4
Now, x + x+2 + x+4 = 93
3x + 6 = 93
3x = 93 - 6
x = 87/3
x = 29
Then, x+2 = 31, & x+4 = 33

In short, Your Integers would be 29, 31, 33

Hope this helps!

What is one ninth plus two thirds simplified
GREYUIT [131]
7/9. 1/9 plus 2/3. You have to get the lest common denominator, so change 3 to 9 by multiplying it by three. Remember, you have to do the same thing you do to the denominator to the numerator. So, 2/3 would be 6/9. 6/9 plus 1/9 is easy, basic facts. 1 and 6 is 7, and you put the nine under. You get 7/9
