What are the steps on how do you divide fractions using area models?

1 answer:

6 0

Use keep, change, flip!
Ex: 1 / 3
— —
2 4

Keep the 1/2
Change the division sign to a multiplication sign
Flip the 3/4 to be 4/3

1 X 4
— —
2 3

Then, multiple and simplify as usual!

1 X 4= 4
2 X 3= 6

4 = 2
— —
6 3

The answer would be 2
—
3

Hope this helps, brainliest please! :)

2/3x+5=1 what is the solution to the equation shown?

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{2}{3}$ x + 5 = 1 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

$\frac{2}{3}$ x = - 4

Multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction

2x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 6

Scientists have found a relationship between the temperature and the height above a distant planet's surface. , given below, is the temperature in Celsius at a height of kilometers above the planet's surface. The relationship is as follows: T(h) = 30.5 -2.5h.

a) Calculate T^-1(x)

b) T^-1(15)

Answer:

a) $T^{-1} (x)= \frac{30.5-x}{2.5}$
