What is the algebraic expression for the following word phrase: the quotient of x and 6y?


a. x/6
b. x/6y
c. 6xy*
d. x - 6 and

Answer 1

for 2, group the numerators and denominaotors with parenthesis that have multiple terms

Answer 2

quotient means divide, quotient of A and B is A/B
Product is multiply

Answer 3

So, would number 2 actually be "A?"

Answer 4

quotient of 8 and the difference between x and m

Division for the quotient, the difference of x and m is x-m

the quotient of 8 and that difference is then

8 / (x-m)

Answer 5

yes, but as typed, you have to put parenthesis around (x-m) or it is not the same

Answer 6

Alright, thank you! but what about the other two? Math is one of my worst subjects in school.

Answer 7

8/x - m = \[\frac{ 8 }{ x }-m\]

group the denominators for one line typing, lik eyou would put it into a ti-83 or something

Answer 8

8/(x-m) =\[\frac{ 8 }{ x-m }\]

Answer 9

what is the third problem then?

Answer 10

Alright so, the third problem would be "B" right? x/6y

Answer 11

yes, but remember to group the bottom , otherwise as you typed it would be
x/6y = (x*y)/6
