gen chem 1
do you remember what I wrote earlier? the slope formula?
so its |dw:1630183171833:dw|
yes, good job, now simplify that fraction xd
-5/2
yes, but that's an improper fraction, make it a mixed numeral
improper fractions can become a mixed numeral?
-5/2 = -2 1/2 ??? also by the way, how is this chemistry-? slope is prealgebra
its in my gen chem 1 class
so the answer is
yes
i have one more
post it
mmm, use the same formula
-4-5/8-2?
yes, simplify it
-3/2
yep, but make it a mixed numeral by the way, read this https://www.cuemath.com/questions/how-to-change-an-improper-fraction-into-a-mixed-number/#:~:text=Answer%3A%20To%20convert%20an%20improper,4%20into%20a%20mixed%20fraction . if you don't know how to change it
where the heck did they get 3 and 4
where the heck did they get 3
okay, let's first learn how to change a mixed number to an improper fraction, it's easier \[5 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{5 \times 4 +3}{4}\] do you see how i got the numbers? and how the denominator stays the same?
no i dont understand where three comes from
the numerator of the fraction 3/4
howd you get 3 from 24/4
*23/4
\[\frac{23}{4}\] find the quotient of 23/4 it's 5 right? but the remainder is 3 the remainder is the numerator of the mixed numeral
how is the remainder 3
... have you ever divided numbers that result in remainders...? if you divide 23/4... the quotient is 5 but with a remainder of 3, because 5 times 4 is 20, which is 3 less than the 23...?
-3/2 2 times 1 is 2 with a remainder of 1
1 1/2
yesssss, good job but remember the negative sign in the beginning
yes
