OpenStudy (turingtest):

just post one at a time please

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

Sorry

OpenStudy (turingtest):

it's ok what have you tried for the first problem?

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

I couldn't figure it out it didn't make sense to me but I think I just keeping writing it out wrong

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please substitute your numerical data into your expression, namely 8 in place of x, and 6 in place of y

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

what did you get?

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

It says to put -3 for b and 4 for c

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

I got 12/12 or 1 whole

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please note that, if x=8 and y=6, then we can write: \[\frac{ x }{ y }=\frac{ 8 }{ 6 }\] is it right?

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

Yes

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

and then \[\frac{ 4 }{ 3 }\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

well done!

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

Can you help me with #1 I got 1

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes!

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

Okay then how about #2

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please, keep in mind that \[2\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }=2+\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }=\frac{ 2*2+1 }{ 2 }=\frac{ 5 }{ 2 }\] so?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

and\[\frac{ 5 }{ 2 }=2.5\]

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

Thank you very much, I really appreciate your help!

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

thank you!
