What is a linear fraction?

A linear fraction is an expression of the form n/(ax + b) where n, a and b are integers.More generally, an algebraic fraction with a denominator which is a polynomial of order 2 (quadratic) or higher can sometimes be rewritten as a sum of fractions each of whose denominators are binomial expressions or linear fraction. This is particularly important for integration.


How do you factor an expression?

This is sometimes quite tricky. You can use several tricks to help you factor expressions. The first thing you should look out for is whether there is some common factor which you can take out. Example: 3x2 + 5x has the common factor "x" Taking it out, you get: x (3x + 5) Next, you look for some special forms, which you need to get familiar with - such as the difference of two squares, the sum or difference of two cubes, etc. You can probably find those special forms in the corresponding chapter in your algebra book.


How is grouping factors helpful when multiplying 3 or more factors?

Sometimes you can find patterns that make the multiplying easier. Example: 4 x 7 x 25 If you multiplied in order (4 x 7) x 25, you'd come up with 28 x 25, which isn't that easy to do in your head. If you regroup, (4 x 25) x 7, you come up with 100 x 7, which is easier to get 700 from.


What does it mean when less than and greater than are placed between two expressions?

This is used in computer languages (including spreadsheets like Excel) to indicate inequality. If two numbers are not equal, then the first one is either larger or smaller than the second one. This symbol is sometimes used because the standard inequality symbol is not readily available.


What is 0.4 turned into a fraction?

Here's your answer from Google:The given decimals are taken to the tenths, hundredths, thousandths, or ten-thousandths places, and the resulting fractions or mixed numbers must sometimes be reduced to lowest terms. For example, the decimal 0.4 means 4 tenths, or 4/10, which reduces to 2/5.-MK (future librarian)

What do expressions which use numbers or other symbols and an equal sign mean?

In mathematics, such expressions indicate that the value of the expression to the left of the equal sign has the same value as the expression to the right of the equal sign. In some cases, it can also be interpreted to mean that the expression on one side of the equal sign can be used in place of the expression on the other side of the equal sign (say in manipulating algebraic expressions). In computer languages, the equal sign is sometimes also used to indicate that the value of the expression to the right of the equal sign is to be transferred to the location indicated by the expression to the left of the equal sign. The expression to the left of the equal sign is usually a single variable that represents a memory location.

How can algebraic expressions be simplified?

In many ways. It really depends on the algebraic expression. If several terms are added/subtracted, you can usually combine similar terms (terms that have the same combination of variables). If variables are multiplied, you can combine the same variable, adding the corresponding exponents. Sometimes expressions get simpler if you factor them; sometimes you have to multiply out (in other words, the opposite of factoring). Quite frequently, you have to use a combination of methods to simplify expressions. Take an algebra book, and look at some of the examples.
