One way to understand division is to look at it as repeated
subtraction. When you "divide by" a divisor number, you're
asking "how many times can I subtract this divisor from the
dividend, before the dividend is all used up ?".
Well, if the divisor is ' 1 ', then you're taking ' 1 ' away from the
dividend each time, and the number of times will be exactly
the same as the dividend.
If the divisor is more than ' 1 ', then you subtract more than ' 1 '
from the dividend each time, and the number of times you can
do that is less than the dividend itself.
If the divisor is less than ' 1 ', then you only take away a piece of
' 1 ' each time. You can do that more times than the number in
the dividend, because you only take away a piece each time.
Since the area of the poster doesn't change by putting it in a frame, we presume the question is asking what the area of the framed poster is.
The length of the poster in its frame is ...
(frame width on one side) + (poster length) + (frame width on the other side)
2 in + 32 in + 2 in = 36 in
Likewise, the width of the poster in its frame is ...
2 in + 24 in + 2 in = 28 in
The area of a rectangle 36 in by 28 in is the product of these dimensions:
Area = (36 in)×(28 in) = (36×28) in² = 1008 in²
The three points give you three equations, which you can solve by your favorite method.
.. 0m +0n +b = 6
.. 1m +0n +b = -3
.. 0m +2n +b = 5
(m, n, b) = (-9, -1/2, 6)
so the equation of the plane can be written as
.. z = -9x -1/2y +6
_____
In standard form, this would be
.. 18x +y +2z = 12
Hey there! :)
2x + 4 > 16
We're simply just trying to get x onto it's own side, so let's get rid of any numbers on the same side of it.
We can start out by subtracting both sides by 4.
2x + 4 - 4 > 16 - 4
Simplify.
2x > 12
Then, divide both sides by 2.
2x ÷ 2 > 12 ÷ 2
Simplify.
x > 6
Therefore, our answer is D. x > 6
