Answer: 3/4
Explanation: Find a common denominator (bottom number) for both fractions. 4. Multiply the 1 and 2 in 1/2 to get 2/4. Then just add the numerators (top number). This gives you 3/4.
I noticed you also said show me how to multiply. For fractions, you just mutiply the numeration and denominator apart.
1 x 1 1
- - = -
2x 4 8
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be "x"
We translate the word equation to algebraic equation.
First,
subtract 6 from me, so we have:
x - 6
Now,
Multiply by 2, so we have:
2(x-6)
Now,
Subtract 40, then divide by 4:
Now, you get "8", so equate this to 8, we get:
We now solve using algebra:
The number is 42
Answer: y - 5 = 0(x - 1)
==================================================
Explanation:
Recall that point slope form in general is written as such
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where,
m is the slope
(x1,y1) is the point the line goes through
The given equation y = 7 can be written as y = 0x+7. So we see that this line has a slope of m = 0
Plug m = 0 along with the given point (x1,y1) = (1,5) into the point slope equation and we get
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 5 = 0(x - 1)
which is the final answer
note: the equation in bold can be rearranged and simplified to get y = 5; however your teacher seems to want the answer in point-slope form, so we leave it as such.
