rationalizing the numerator, or namely, "getting rid of that pesky radical at the top".
we simply multiply top and bottom by a value that will take out the radicand in the numerator.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3 times 4 is 12. you can solve this by dividing 12 by 3, or by skip counting and using repeated addition.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation: get the variable by itself on one side of the inequality sign.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
y = x/4 - 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b
Step 1: Write equation
x = 4y + 2
Step 2: Subtract 2 on both sides
x - 2 = 4y
Step 3: Divide both sides by 4
x/4 - 1/2 = y
