Explanation Given information: The subtraction of 9.2 from 45 . Use the below steps to subtract: Write the second number below the first number as the decimal places are lined up. Now, place the subtraction sign on the left of the second number. Now, subtract as whole numbers. The subtraction of 9.2 from 45 can be written as:- 45 − 9.2 _ . Then, subtract the digits from the right to the left as whole numbers. Placing a zero to the right of the digits after the decimal in any number will not change any value. Now, insert the decimal and one zero to the right of 5 in the first number so that the digits can be lined up neatly. 45.0 − 9.2 _ Subtract the first place digits to the right of the decimal. Since 2 is larger than 0 , borrow 1 ones from the 5 ones and add it to 0 tens. Thus, 0 becomes 0 + 10 = 10 and 5 becomes 5 − 1 = 4 . 4 5 4 . 0 10 − 9 . 2 _ Now, subtract 2 from 10 , that is: 10 − 2 = 8 . 4 5 4 . 0 10 − 9 . 2 _ 8 Now, place the decimal as in the other numbers. 4 5 4 . 0 10 − 9 . 2 _ .8 Subtract the first place digits to the right of the decimal. Since 9 is larger than 4 , borrow 1 tens from the 4 tens and add it to the 4 ones. Thus, the ones place 4 becomes 4 + 10 = 14 and the tens place 4 becomes 4 − 1 = 3 . 4 3 5 4 14 . 0 10 − 9

Linear Functions

A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
