1. anonymous

2. anonymous

1 is a 2 is c and 3 is b

3. anonymous

@isaac4321 explain plz

4. anonymous

Oh yea sorry well with 1 and 2 the sum and difference gives it away

5. anonymous

6. Nnesha

sum + add difference - subtract quotient / divide product x multiply

7. Nnesha

quotient of x and y is $\rm \frac{ x }{ y}$ so quotient of 9 and a number is ?

8. Nnesha

|dw:1440539402656:dw| let number = x

9. Nnesha

i mean y*

|dw:1440540211678:dw|

11. anonymous

|dw:1440540235040:dw|

12. Nnesha

yes right quotient means divide if quotient of x and y is x/y then quotient of 9 and a number would be ??

13. anonymous

9 /12? right ?

14. Nnesha

no number would be a variable given is quotient of 9 and a number we don't know what number it would be so we use variables like x , y or z in this question there is y

15. anonymous

i dont get it

16. Nnesha

|dw:1440540471153:dw| that's right 12+ now we don't need another 12 quotient of a 9 and a number  is here is i'll give you example quotient of 4 and a number would b e 4/x we represent a number  by variable

17. anonymous

number 3 is b right ?

18. Nnesha

yes right

19. Nnesha

difference means subtract

20. anonymous

okay my mom said that number 4 dont have a answer to it

21. Nnesha

there is a answer for number 4 how would you write quotient of 9 and a number ?

22. anonymous

y/9

23. Nnesha

hmm 9 /y quotient of 9 and y not y and 9

24. Nnesha

|dw:1440541039418:dw| that's what you should write there

25. anonymous

im guessing its B then ?

26. Nnesha

more than = sum both means add

27. anonymous

28. Nnesha

yep

29. anonymous
