Using partial products, 36 x 4 is written as (30 x 4) + (6 x 4). Using place value blocks (array) you can show this by creating 3 columns of 10 across plus 6 individual blocks and repeating this 4 times (4 rows of 30 + 6).

If a collection of dimes is arranged in a triangular array with 14 coins in the base row13 in the next 12 in the next and so forth. Find the value of the collection.?

If there are 14 rows in the triangle, then there are 14*(14-1)/2 coins in the arrangement, i.e. 91 dimes. To find the value of the collection, simply multiply by the value of a dime. I believe this is 10 cents, so the coins are worth 910 cents, or $9.10.


Explain how knowing that 5 divied by 8 0.625 helps you find the decimal for 4 58?

If you know 5 divided by 8 = .625 then you know that the decimal of 4 5/8 is 4.625.

What does PDE mean?

In mathematics, a PDE is a Partial Differential Equation. To partially differentiate an equation, read below: Suppose you have a function f(x,y) and suppose you want to partially differentiate it w.r.t. x then you consider y as a constant and find d/dx(f(x,y)). Eg. - Let f(x,y)=xy+x+y then on partially differentiating f(x,y) w.r.t. x - d/dx(f(x,y)) = d/dx(xy) + d/dx(x) + d/dx(y) = y(d/dx(x)) + 1 + 0 (as y is constant) = y +1 Some application(s) of partial differential equations that I know - 1. Find the centre of a conic: Suppose you have a curve as a function of x and y, say f(x,y). Then to find its centre - -> Partially differentiate f(x,y) w.r.t. x. Let the equation obtained be e1. -> Partially differentiate f(x,y) w.r.t. y. Let the equation obtained be e2. Solve e1 and e2 to get (x,y) which is the centre of the curve. 2. To find the (conservative) force acting on an object if its Potential energy is given as a function of distance: -> Let the potential energy function be U(x,y). -> To find the force acting on object in x-direction, find minus(partial derivative of U(x,y) w.r.t. x). -> Same method to find force acting on the object in y-direction. -> Only works for conservative force.

Can multiplication be distributive over subtraction?

Multiplication can be the first step when using the distributive property with subtraction. The distributive law of multiplication over subtraction is that the difference of the subtraction problem and then multiply, or multiply each individual products and then find the difference.
