Reflect on the following quotation: “I’m a great believer that any tool that enhances communication has profound effects in term

s of how people can learn from each other, and how they can achieve the kind of freedoms that they’re interested in.”
In what ways does algebra act as a tool to improve communication? How does algebra affect how people can learn from each other?

We can define communication as: "Transmission of signals through a common code to the sender and receiver."

Now, let's talk a little bit about algebra (this can be generalized for mathematics, not only <u>algebra</u>).

Math is a logical construction (there are pillars called axioms, and almost everything comes from them) that can be used to describe almost anything.

These descriptions are, in fact, a way of communication.

As you always will understand a price tag of $100 in some store, or what a sign in some number means.

Particularly if we go to more complex topics, like quantum mechanics or similar things, <u>math</u> is mandatory to write what we believe is happening, as words are not exact enough, and math has the property that it is always exact.

This means that 3 + 3 will always be equal to 6, but the mean of the words evolves with time, so one word may mean something today, and in 50 years the meaning can change.

Now let's answer both questions:

In what ways does <u>algebra</u> act as a tool to improve communication?

<u>Algebra</u> is really simple to understand and all around our world people use algebra, so you can use it to communicate with people that has a different mother tongue than you. Also can be used to describe things in an exact way, avoiding misunderstandings.

How does algebra affect how people can learn from each other?

As you may know, the largest part of human knowledge uses math in some form, it allows that knowledge to be available for everyone that understands <u>math.</u>

And because it was born as a logical construction,<u> algebra</u> (and <u>math</u>) is exactly the same thing everywhere, so it allows you to receive (and give) information from/to anyone, this is why it is a really important tool for learning.

What is the equation of the line through (4,5) and (0,-3)
Allisa [31]

Answer:

y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept equation of a line:

y = mx + b

(0, -3) is the y-intercept, so b = -3

We have

y = mx - 3

Now we use the two points to find the slope.

slope = m = (-3 - 5)/(0 - 4) = -8/(-4) = 2

y = 2x - 3

Solve the system of equations. (3x + 4y = 5) (2x - 3y = -8)
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

the solution is (-1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve the system

(3x + 4y = 5)

(2x - 3y = -8)

using the method of elimination by addition and subtraction.  Notice that if we multiply all terms of the first equation by 3 and all terms of the second by 4, y as a variable will temporarily disappear:

  9x + 12y = 15

  8x - 12y  = -32

-----------------------

 17x       = - 17, so x = -1.  

Replacing x in the second equation by -1, we get:

2(-1) - 3y = -8, or

2 + 3y = 8,

or 3y = 6.  Thus, y = 2, and the solution is (-1, 2).

B is the midpoint

\\ \sf\longmapsto AB=\dfrac{1}{2}AC

\\ \sf\longmapsto 7x-3=\dfrac{5}{2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 5=2(7x-3)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 5=14x-6

\\ \sf\longmapsto 14x=6+5

\\ \sf\longmapsto 14x=11

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{11}{14}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=7.8
