Let's look at an example.
We'll add the fractions 1/6 and 1/8
Before we can add, the denominators must be the same.
To get the denominators to be the same, we can...
- multiply top and bottom of 1/6 by 8 to get 8/48
- multiply top and bottom of 1/8 by 6 to get 6/48
At this point, both fractions involve the denominator 48. We can add the fractions like so
8/48 + 6/48 = (8+6)/48 = 14/48
Add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same the entire time.
The last step is to reduce if possible. In this case, we can reduce. This is because 14 and 48 have the factor 2 in common. Divide each part by 2.
The fraction 14/48 reduces to 7/24
Overall, 1/6 + 1/8 = 7/24
This chart represents a proportional relationship. The rate of change will be 4.
<h3>What is the constant of proportionality?</h3>
Firstly, there is a proportional relationship.
Two values x and y are said to be in a proportional relationship if x=ky, where x and y are variables and k is a constant.
The constant k is called the constant of proportionality.
Given;
x y
1 4
2 8
3 12
4 16
Here, x = ky
put the first value
k = 1/4
This chart represents a proportional relationship.
So the rate of change will be

Solution: We are given that the population of Virginia is 8 million.
Let x be the population of Nevada.
We are given population of Virginia is 2.8 million less than 4 times the population of Nevada.
The first step is to on both sides.
add 2.8
The second step is to on both sides.
divide 4
The population of Nevada is million.

Hello there! The answer is C. 7/9.
The question is asking you how to find the absolute value of -7/9. Absolute value is the value of the number, regardless if it is negative or positive. So, that makes C your answer.
I hope this was helpful in finding an answer to your question, have a great day! :)
Answer:
1. 36 sq un
2. 40 sq un
3. 20 sq un
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer for number one is 36 square units because the rectangular area is 24 sq un and the triangular area is 12 sq un so I added them to get 36 sq un. The second answer is 40 sq un because if you cut the shape into 2 shapes you get 2 equal trapezoids. Each trapezoid is 20 sq un so I multiplied it by two to get 40 sq un. The third answer is 20 because the side triangles are 2 sq un each and the square on the bottom is 16 sq un. By the way, sq un means square units lol.
