asked by Briannaara in Algebra 4 hours ago  To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide it out. For example 1/2 = 1.0/2 = .5 (note this is the same as 10/2, but a decimal point is stuck in 1 place from the right in the dividend and quotient)1/4 = 1.00/4 = .25 (note this is the same as 100/4, but a decimal point is stuck in 2 places from the right in ...more answered by Oddman 2 hours ago
 On your calculator you will see a function x^y, when you are calculating something along the lines of the 4th root of 32, this can also be written as 32^(1/4) so here are the steps. First calculate 1/4 into decimals = .25 In your caculator (in general) press 2 Press the function button X^Y enter 0.25 Hit the '=' button. When ...more answered by K6math 10 hours ago
asked by Nikkinique in Algebra 1 day ago The formula for converting just about anything to just about anything else is to multiply it by 1. The trick is to choose the value of "1" to be something useful for the purpose.To convert 2/10 to ?/100, we choose 1 = 10/10.(2/10)*(10/10) = (2*10)/(10*10) = 20/100To convert 2/10 to a decimal fraction, we perform the indicated division--being mindful ...more answered by Oddman 19 hours ago
asked by Helpme30 in Homework Help 1 day ago Please look at the answer and links in this question.These terms are used to try to teach kids to differentiate uses of numbers. For example, the town name (label) 1000 Oaks is a different use of a number than the count of 1000 oak trees (1000 oaks).The measure of 50 yards is different from the position 50-yard line (though it can be confusing when ...more answered by Oddman 1 day ago
[(a2 - b2)/(a - b)2]*[(a2 + b2)/(a + b)2] = [(a+b)(a-b)/((a-b)(a-b))]*[(a2+b2)/((a+b)(a+b))] = [(a+b)/(a-b)]*[(a2+b2)/((a+b)(a+b))] = (a2+b2)/((a-b)(a+b)) = (a2+b2)/(a2-b2)_____There may be a faster way to get there. Recognize that the denominators end up being (a-b)2(a+b)2 = (a2-b2)2 This cancels the first ...more answered by Oddman 1 day ago
