The product of 340 and 6. Are they multiplied or is it divided

1 answer:

3 0

The term product is always used as a process for multiplication. So they are multiplied.
However, the quotient is used for division, if you want to divide something.

Hope this helps :)

Ex 1: The sum of two numbers is 93 and their difference is 41. Find them.

musickatia [10]

Let x = the larger number
Let y = the smaller number
x + y = 93
x - y = 19 Add the two equations together.
2x = 112 Divide both sides of the equation by 2.
x = 56
56 + y = 93 Subtract 56 from both sides of the equations.
y = 37

Solve the simultaneous Equation using the two methods 4m=n +7 3m+ 4n+9=0

GrogVix [38]

Elimination method:

4m = n + 7

3m + 4n + 9 = 0

First, let's get the equations in the same form.

4m - n - 7 = 0

3m + 4n + 9 = 0

Now let's make multiply the first equation by 4 so we can eliminate n.

16m - 4n - 28 = 0

+3m + 4n + 9 = 0

Now we can add the equations.

16m + 3m - 4n + 4n - 28 + 9 = 0

19m + 0n - 19 = 0

19m - 19 = 0

19m = 19

m = 1

Now we put m back into one (or both) of the original equations.

4(1) = n + 7

4 = n + 7

n = -3

If you plug m into the other equation, you get the same result.

Substitution method:

4m = n + 7

3m + 4n + 9 = 0

With this method, we plug one of the equations into the other one. I'm going to use m in the second equation as a substitute for m in the second equation.

3m + 4n + 9 = 0

3m = -4n - 9

m = (-4/3)n - 3

Now I can substitute the right side into the first equation like so:

4[(-4/3)n - 3] = n + 7

(-16n)/3 - 12 = n + 7

(-16n)/3 = n + 19

-16n = 3(n + 19)

-16n = 3n + 57

0 = 16n + 3n + 57

0 = 19n + 57

0 = 19n/19 + 57/19
