Explain why the product is always less than one when you multiply a fraction by another fraction
Answers
Because when you do that ...
-- you're starting with a piece that's less than ' 1 ', and
-- you're calculating a piece of it that's less than the whole original piece.
so a proper fraction (one that is less than one like 1/2 and not 5/3) is always less than one by definition, a fraction means a 'part of' so if you multiply a fraction of a fraction it is like finding a part of a part and if the origonal part was less than one, then the result will be less than one like
1/2 of 2/4= (2/4=1/4+1/4) so 1/2 of 2/4=1/4 which is less than one

Y = 2x -7 x + 2y = 1
Answers
easy y=2x-7 sub 2x-7 for every y you se inother equation x+2(2x-7)=1 x+4x-14=1 5x-14=1 add 14 both sides 5x=15 divide 5 x=3
sub back
y=2x-7 y=2(3)-7 y=6-7 y=-1

Which weighs more: a pound of feathers or a pound of rocks?(And this was too businesses! What if I want to know how much to price stuff?)
Answers
They both weigh the same. They are both a pound each. One rock may weigh a pound where a thousand feathers may weigh a pound, but they still are both the amount needed to be a pound each.
