The letters b and c could represent almost any number. They are used in equations normally because they are unknown, and so that we can figure out their values through solving the problem.
In mathematical equations letters of the alphabet are used to represent numbers. Letters in the beginning of the alphabet, a, b, c...,etc typically represent Constants. Letters at the end, x, y, z..typically represent Unknowns, or variables.
The large numbers represent inches on a standard tape. Depending on the scale, smaller numbers could be in 16ths or 32s of an inch.
Depends what the numbers actually represent. You could have 6 whole numbers or 46 parts of 1, as in 46/46.
Pick three numbers. If the square of the largest number is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two, then the three numbers could represent the sides of a right triangle.
The letters b and c could represent almost any number. They are used in equations normally because they are unknown, and so that we can figure out their values through solving the problem.
A-b
There are many things that the numbers 816 could represent. The numbers could represent an area code for telephones numbers in a certain area of the United States.
Subtraction a-b
Subtraction
addition a + b
In mathematical equations letters of the alphabet are used to represent numbers. Letters in the beginning of the alphabet, a, b, c...,etc typically represent Constants. Letters at the end, x, y, z..typically represent Unknowns, or variables.
a + b = a + (-b) where b is the additive inverse (opposite) of b.
With two circles you can get 8 and ∞.
Gerolamo Cardano is an Italian mathematician who introduced complex numbers. Complex numbers are those that can be expressed in the form of a+bi where a and b represent real numbers.
The commutative property states that ab = ba.
The large numbers represent inches on a standard tape. Depending on the scale, smaller numbers could be in 16ths or 32s of an inch.
