A linear equation has 1 for all exponents on the placeholders
aka the equation is first degree (aka the hightest exponent on placeholders=1) so
it is linear
The answer is 0.664 because you have to divide 4/5 and 5/6
Answer:
a+(n-1)d please do you get it or
Convert the two fractions into simpler fractions: 3 2/5 --> 17/5 and 4 1/5 --> 21/5. Notice the the denominators are identical, so we simply add the numerators: (17 + 21)/5 = 38/5 = 7 3/5.
There is an easier way to do this, this is just the most clear way of seeing everything.
There are many ways a problem can be simplified. You can divide by the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) or even factor which depending on where you are in math you may or may not have learned. For your problem, I will use the first method.
3m-8 can be multiplied by any term (keep it simple):
2(3m-8) = 6m-16
4(3m-8) = 12m-32
Your answers should be 6m-16 and 12m-32.
