Fraction Subtraction Rules

Introduction For fraction subtraction rules:
A fraction is a part of a whole group or its region. A fraction written in a form of number with bottom part (denominator) denotes how many parts the whole divided into, and a top part (numerator). Fraction is in few types which can be written as many types which depend upon numerator and denominator by its value.

Fractions are subdivided into
Proper fractions
Improper fractions
Mixed fractions


Classification of Fractions:


Proper Fractions:
A proper fraction, fraction which a denominator shows in number of parts into whole divided and a numerator shows the number of parts which  we taken out. proper fraction also defined as numerator less than denominator.

Example:
`1/3, 2/5`

Improper Fractions:
Improper fractions is a fraction, whose numerator which is greater than the denominator are called improper fractions.

Example:
`3/2, 9/2`

Mixed Fractions:

A  mixed fraction is a fraction defined as which  has combination of a whole and its part.

Example:
2` 1/4,` 2` 2/9` ,


Rules for Fraction Subtraction:


In subtraction, rules for fraction numbers with same denominator, denominator remains same number and we subtract only numerator.
We can't do subtraction in fraction with different denominator rules for that we have to take LCM for all denominator and change different denominator into like denominator by taking LCM and adding fractions

Example Problems in Fraction subtraction rules:
Example 1:
subtract fractions  `1/3` from  `5/3`

Solution :
given fraction is a proper fraction, we have same denominator
`5/3 -1/3` =` (5-1)/3`

=`4/3`

Example 2:
subtract fractions  `2/5` from  `4/5`

Solution :
given fraction is a proper fraction, we have same denominator
`4/5 -2/5` =` (4-2)/5`

=`2/5`

Example 3:
subtract  fractions  `1/5` from `1/3`

Solution:
In this improper fraction we have different denominator  so,we take LCM
The LCM of 3 and 5 is 15.

Therefore, `1/3-1/5` =`(1xx5)/(3xx5)-(1xx3)/(5xx3)`

=`5/15-3/15`

=`2/15`
Example 4:
Subtract fractions  `1 2/5` from `3 3/6`

Solution:
`3 3/6 - 1 2/5` =  `(18+3)/6-(5+2)/5`

Now `21/6-7/5` =`(21xx5)/(6xx5)-(7xx6)/(5xx6) `    since LCM of 5,6 =30

=`105/30-42/30`

=`63/30`

Elementary Math Terms

Introduction to elementary math terms
     Elementary math terms are the basic form of algebra having little or no proper information of mathematics beyond arithmetic. In arithmetic numbers and their arithmetical operations (such as +, −, ×, ÷) occur, in algebra one also uses symbols (such as x and y, or a and b) to denote numbers. Elementary Algebra can be distinguished from abstract algebra, a more advanced field of study.And now we see about the elementary math terms below in simple problems.(Source in wikipedia )
                              

Elementary math terms problems in solving the equations:


  • Solve the given problem for  x: 1 - 3(x - 4) = 2(3x + 1) - 7

Solution:-
Now we allocate the  above equation:
1 - 3x +12 = 6x + 2 - 7
Collect like terms:
 -3x +13 = 6x - 5
Add 3x to both sides of the equal sign:
-3x +13 + 3x = 6x - 5 + 3x
13 = 9x - 5
Add 5 to both sides:
18 = 9x
Divide both sides by 9 in above equation :
2 = x
The final result of the given problem fro  x is 2.

  • Solvethe given problem for y:   ax + by = c
solution:-
Step 1: Subtract ax from both sides:
Step 2:by = c - ax
Step 3:Divide both sides by b:
           C - ax
y =   -----------  
             b
The final result of the given problem are            C - ax
                                                                       y = -----------                                            
                                                                                b

  • Solve the problem :X = 5*(20+5)

Solution:
Step 1:  5*(20+5) = 5*20+5*5
Step 2:  =100+25
               X  =125
The final result the given problem is X= 125
  • Solve the problem :X= 9*(6 + 5)
Solution
Step 1: 9*(6 + 5) = 9*6 + 9 *5
Step2: 36 + 45 
Step 3: X =  81     
The final result of the given problem  is X = 81       
  • Solve the problem : Y = 7+(4+6)

Solution:
Step 1:7+(4+6)=7+10
                  Y    =17
The final result of the given problem is Y =  17
The above discussed are the  element math terms like addition , subtraction ,Multiplication and division .

Practice problems in Elementary math terms :


  • Solve algebraic equation       6(-2x - 3) - (x - 2) = -5(2x + 3) + 19  
Solution:    x = 10
  • Subtract x3 – 3x2 – 1 from 3x3 + 6x2 – 4x – 8.
Solution:   2x3 + 9x2 – 4x – 7

Intercept Theorem

Introduction:
                  Intercept theorem plays a vital role in elementary geometry. It deals with the ratios of various line segments, which are created if two intersecting lines are intercepted by a pair of parallels. This theorem is equivalent to ratios of similar triangles. Traditionally it is attributed. The intercept theorem is  also called as Thale's Theorem. If a transversal line makes equal intercepts on three or more parallel lines, then any other line cutting them will also make equal intercepts.

Concept of Intercept Theorem:


                  If a transversal line makes equal intercepts on three or more parallel lines, then any other line cutting them will also make equal intercepts. AP || BQ || CR.


Types of intercept Theorem


                  If a transversal line makes equal intercepts on three or more parallel lines, then any other line cutting them will also make equal intercepts. AP || BQ || CR.

What Does Transversal Mean in Math


Introduction to Transversal in Math:

Definition:

A line that cuts (passes through) across two or more (usually parallel) lines then it is said to be a transversal.
It can also be defined as a line that intersects two or more co-planar lines each at a different point is also termed as a Transversal.

Transversal Postulates:
If two lines are parallel to each other and intersected by a transversal then the corresponding angles are congruent.

Some important points:
  • Supplementary angles are the angles whose sum is equal to 1800.
  • Vertical angles are the angles that are not adjacent angles and are formed by two intersecting lines and are always equal to each other.
Properties of transversal of parallel lines:
  • If two parallel lines are cut by a straight line (transversal), then the corresponding angles around each intersection are equal in measure or we can say mathematically as these angles are congruent.
  • If two parallel lines are cut by a straight line (transversal) then the alternate interior angles are congruent.
  • If two parallel lines are cut by a straight line (transversal) then the interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary.

Proofs for transversal by solved examples


Solved Problems to prove the above given points:
Ex 1: In the given figure, If the angles 2 and 3 are congruent then prove that r and s are parallel.
transversal 1

parallel lines 
Sol: Step 1: Given in the problem that angle 2 = angle 3
       Step 2: From the data given above angle 1 and angle 2 are vertically opposite angles and are congruent.
                               therefore, angle 1 = angle 2
       Step 3:The transitive property says that if a=b and b=c then a=c
 Using this property we have,
          angle 2 = angle 3    (given in the problem)
          angle 1 = angle 2    (vertically opposite angles)
so ,    angle 1 = angle 3   
As the angles made by the transversal with the two lines are equal the two lines are parallel.
Ex 2: Show that the transversal shown in the figure cuts the parallel lines.
transversal 2
Sol: In the above figure the angles 4 and 3 are known as alternate interior angles.Accoding to above discusssed points the alternate interior angles are congruent.
           `=>`    angle 4 = angle 3
So, the two lines are parallel lines.
Ex 3: Prove that the lines a and b shown in the figure below are parallel.
transversal 3

Sol: Clearly it is shown that the angles 1 and 2 are equal to` 90@` . That means that they are supplementary angles based upon the above discussion.
As the  angles made by the transversal with the two straigth are supplementary(equal) the two lines are parallel.Hence, proved.

Practice Problem on traversal line


Pro: Find the measures of the unknown angles in the following figure.Given r is parallel to s and angle 1 = `60@.`
problem 4
Ans:  angle 2 =`120@.`
angle 3 = `60@` .
angle 4 = `120@`
angle 5 = angle 1 = 600
angle 6 = angle 2 = 1200
angle 7 = angle 3 = 600
angle 8 = angle 4 = 1200

Solving Genetics Probability Problems

In probability method, we have to decide the basic terms of probability.. The main aim of genetics probability subject is to give the fundamental properties the importance of their use with some basic examples of genetics. In a genetics probability, the basic term and properties is not easier to understand but work with sums we will start to get comfortable with in genetics probability.


Basic Definitions of genetics probability:

In a genetic probability method, an testing method is continuously repeated for infinite numbers of time and it happened by the expected probability in the genetics

Genetics probability solving problems:

Problem 1:

To solve consider a locus with two chromosome, C and c. If the frequency of CC is 0.64, what is the frequency of A under Hardy-Weinberg?

Solution:

Solving methods of genetic probability,

Under H-W, if q = freq(C) , then q2 = freq(CC), hence q2 =0.64 or q = 0.8.

Problem 2:

To solve if the genotypes CC, Cc, and cc have frequencies 0.7, 0.49, and 0.49 (respectively), what are q = freq (C)? r = freq (c)? After a single generation of random mating, what is the expected frequency of CC? Of Cc? Of cc?

Solution:

Solving methods of genetic probability,

p = freq (CC) + (1/2) freq (Cc) = 0.7 + (1/2)(0.49) = 0.945

q = 1-p = 0.945

freq (CC) = p2 = 0.9452 = 0.8930

freq (Cc) = 2qr = 2*0.945*0.8930 =1.6877

freq (cc) = r2= 0.89302= 0.797449

Problem 3:

To solve the suppose 60 out of 850 women’s are green eyes. What is frequency of green eyes? If a random women’s is chosen, what is the probability they are a green eyes?

Solution:

Solving methods of genetic probability,

Freq (Redheads) = 60/850 = 0.070 or 7.05 percent

Probability of a Redhead = 30/850, or 7.05 percent

Problem 4:

Solve the genotype cc is lethal and yet population has an equilibrium frequency for c of 30.  Here the Cc is the fitness and its value is one.  Find the CC genotype fitness?

Recall if the genotypes CC: Cc: cc have fitness 1-s : 1 : 1-t, then the equilibrium frequency of A is s/(r+s).

Here, s= 1 (as cc is lethal), so that freq(C) = 1- freq(c) =0.6 = 1/(1+s)

Solving gives 1+s = 1/0.8, or s = 1/0.8 -1 = 3.5

Hence fitness of CC = 1-s = 1-3.5=-2.5.

Linear Algebra Test


Linear function is a function with polynomial degree 1. This linear function matches a dependent variable with independent variable and maintains a relation in a simpler way. The linear algebra is the important method which is used in the linear function, variable function, linear equation, vector, matrix etc. This linear function is used in the high school and college students are using the linear function by using the linear algebra.

Sample Problem for linear algebra:


f is a linear function. Value of x and f(x) are given in the table below; complete the table using linear algebra

X                           f(x)

-1                          11

1                           –

–                           1

6                          -12

7                         --

–                          -35

Solution:

f is a linear function in linear algebra whose formula has the form to test is

f(x) = a x + b

where a and b are constants to be test and found. Note that 2 ordered pairs (-2,18) and (5,-19) are given in the table. These are two ordered pairs to test are used to write a system of linear equations as follows

11 = - 1 a + b and -12 = 6 a + b

Solve the above system to obtain a = - 3 and b = 2 and write the formula for function f as follows

f(x) = - 3 x + 2

We now use the formula for the f to find f(x) given x or find x given f(x).

for x = 0 , f(0) = -3(0) + 2 = 2

for f(x) = 1 , 1 = -3 x + 2 which gives x = 1/3

for x = 7 , f(7) = -3(7) + 2 = - 19

for f(x) = - 30 , -30 = -3 x + 2 which gives x = 32/3

We now put the values of the calculated above in the answer.
