2/8. 2/8 can be simplified to 1/4 if you divide by 2 in both the numerator and the denominator. Draw two pies. Make one pie cut into 8 even pieces and one cut into 4. Shade in two of the slices on the pie with 8 pieces (side by side) and shade in one on the pie that's cut into four slices (in the same spot as on the other pie). You should see how you shaded the same total area of each pie.

The difference of two numbers is 1. What is the smallest possible value for the sum of their squares?​
Stella [2.4K]
X= 1 number
Y= a number that is 1 less than x
Y= x-1

The sum of squares=

X^2 + (x-1)^2 = x^2 + x^2 - 2x + 1
X^2 + x^2 - 2x + 1 = 2x^2 - 2x + 1

Assuming that integers = numbers. We could try some values

When x = 0, the sum of squares = 1
When x = -1, the sum of squares = 4
When x = 1, the sum of squares = 1

If you put this into a graph, it is a parabola and we see that the minimum value hits at x = 1/2.

To check this value:

2x^2 - 2x + 1 = 2·(1/4) - 2·(1/2) + 1
2·(1/4) - 2·(1/2) + 1 = 1/2 - 1 + 1
1/2 - 1 + 1 = 1/2

When you look back at the question, it asks for 2 answers

X= 1/2
X-1 = -1/2

What is the sum of their squares?

1/4 + 1/4 = 1/2

That fits with graph too.

Answers: 1/2 and -1/2

Hope this helps!!
