Give the equivalent numerator if the denominator is x³y².
\[\frac{ 2 }{ xy^2 }\]
We can find equivalent functions when we divide or multiply both numerator and denominator by a number. For example: \[\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }=\frac{ 3 }{ 12 }=\frac{ 6 }{ 24 }\] With algebraic fractions, the same logic is applied. So, since the equivalent denominator of the fraction: \[\frac{ 2 }{ xy^2 }\] is x^3 y^2 all we have to do is make a x^3 so we will multiply the numerator and the denominator by x^3: \[\frac{ 2x^2 }{ xy^2 x^2 }\] Giving us as a equivalent fraction: \[\frac{ 2x^2 }{ x^3 y^2 }\]
Here's the answer choices, btw. x²y 2x² 2x³y²
Well, it's just the numerator of the fraction I gave you in the previous response, that is "2x^2"
Total blonde moment:) oops..lol
hahaha
Thank you! Would you mind helping me with some more?
Sure, just post them and tag me.
Will do. Medal for medal (on each question) and fan for fan?:)
@Owlcoffee ..?
