Answer:

There is a difference between FRACTION and PROPORTION.

Explanation of fraction:

On a card board sheet draw a square or rectangle or any simple shape of your choice. Divide your preferred shape into 4 equal parts. One portion or one part of the divided shape is 1/4. Three (3 ) parts of the divided shape equal 3/4. Also if the shape is divided into twenty (20). One (1) part is 1/20, sixteen(16) parts equal 16/20.

Explanation of Proportion:

If an item is shared in a proportion of 3:4,it means that A gets 3/(3+4) of what is to be shared , that is 3/7 of the bulk item to be shared. B gets 4/(3+4) of what is to be shared, that is 4/7 of the bulk item to be shared.

Also if an item is shared in a proportion of 16:20 , A gets 16/(16+20)=16/36 of Bulk item while B gets 20/(16+20)= 20/36 of the Bulk item being shared.

In effect Fractions and Proportions are related but different.

2x-y=10 y=-4x+2 substitution method
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

the solution is (2, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the second equation into the first, replacing y in the first:

2x - (-4x+2) = 10

Simplifying, we get:

2x + 4x - 2 = 10, or:

6x = 12, which yields x = 2.

Substituting 2 for x in the second equation yields y = -4(2) + 2 = 0, or y = -6

Then the solution is (2, -6).
