Multiplication is a simple way of adding
For example 6x8 is the same as 8+8+8+8+8+8
Any number multiplied by 1 is itself E.g 4x1 = 4
Multiplying by 2 is just doubling
Multiplying by 10 is adding a 0 to the original number
If it is a big number that you do not know how to multiply mentally split it up
E.g 17x13
Split 13 into 10 and 3
17x10= 170
17x3= 51
Then add these numbers
221
If you ever get stuck, use the long method, add them instead, you will get to the right answer but it will take longer
Dividing is not as simple
Like multiplication dividing by one will leave you with the same answer
Dividing by two means you half the number, which may give you a decimal
Bigger numbers are trickier, and you may be allowed to use a calculator for numbers

Answer:
x² – x – 12 = (x – 4)(x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Identify two numbers that add to -1 and multiply to -12, let's call them p and q.
So ax² + bx + c = (x + p)(x + q)
pq = c
p + q = b.
It is easier to find these numbers by finding factors of -12.
This can be done by splitting the number up until all the numbers are prime.
-12 → 6 × -2 or -6 × 2 → -(3 × 2 × 2)
There can only be two numbers so the only options we have are 6 and -2, -6 and 2, 3, and -4, or -3 and 4.
We can eliminate them by adding them up.
6 + -2 = 4 ≠ -1 so that can't be it.
-6 + 2 = -4 ≠ -1 so that can't be it either.
-3 + 4 = 1 ≠ -1
therefore p and q are 3 and -4 because 3 + -4 = -1.
so x² – x – 12 = (x – 4)(x + 3)
p = -4, and q = 3.
(x – 4)(x + 3) = x(x + 3) – 4(x + 3) = x² + 3x – 4x + 12 = x² – x – 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the line goes through the origin and is propotinal, we just do y/x
4/3= 1 1/3
y=1 1/3x

Answer: 250 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x students in 6th grade either purchased their lunch or brought their lunch from home on Monday.
According to the question,
24% of the students purchased their lunch.
⇒ (100-24)% of the student brought their lunch from home.
⇒ 76 % of the student brought their lunch from home.
But, Again according to the question,
190 students brought their lunch from home.
⇒ 76 % of x = 190
⇒ x = 250
Therefore, there are total 25 students in the 6th grade.
Answer:
The only difference between the two is the "-4" in the second function. This is a vertical translation. g(x) will give the same curve, but 4 units lower on the graph.
