Answer:

Ok say your doing 1/4 * 2/4 you move the /4 over to the side and multiply 1 and 2 that would be 2 so then you put the the 2 on top of the /4 and you have 2/4… Now if you have odd numbers like 1/4 * 1/6 you would simplied the 6 and 4 what can go into (divide by the same number) 6 AND 4 both… 2 because so you change the 1/4 and 1/6 to a 1/2 * 1/2 those multiplied together equal 1/2

To multiply a fraction, imagine it this way. Start with 1/4. Then if you multiply 1/4 by 2 it would be 1/2.

If you have a quarter, and you times that quarter by 2, you have half a dollar.

It only needs to be simplified if you can simplify the fraction.

What is the answer 6²÷2(3)+4=
Annette [7]
6²÷2(3)+4

Use the order of operations:
GEMDAS (grouping, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction)

First is grouping.
While there is a number inside parentheses, there aren't any operations in there we have to do first. The 2(3) is just another way to write multiplication. (2×3)

Second is exponents.
We do have an exponent here, 6².
The ² means to multiply something by itself. 6² = 6×6 = 36

Now our expression is 36÷2(3)+4

Next is multiplication/division. We can do these in any order. (either do the ×3 first or the ÷2 first, it doesn't matter)
Let's start at the left with 36÷2, which equals 18. (check: 18×2=36)
Now, we'll do the 18×3 = 54
If we were to do 36(3)÷2 that would work too-- 36×3÷2 = 108÷2 = 54.
Now while you can do these in any order, what you can <em>not</em> do is multiply the dividend 2 by 3. That would give 36÷6 = 6, which is incorrect. It's not something you need to fret over, just go from left to right doing your multiplication/division and you shouldn't ever have this problem.

Now we have 54 + 4 which is clearly 58.

Find the roots of the equation: y=4(X+4)^2 -12
Dafna1 [17]
0=4(x²+8x+16)-12
0=4x²+32x+64-12
0=4x²+32x+52
0=x²+8x+13
D=b²-4ac
D=64-52=12
x=(-b-√D)/2a
x=(-b+√D)/2a
x=(-8-2√3)/2= (-2(4+√3))/2= -(4+√3)
AND
x=(-8+2√3)/2=-2(4-√3)/2= -(4-√3)
