Alex wrote the expanded form for the number 165.038 as "100 60 5 30 8." was he correct? if not, give the correct expanded form.
1 answer:
The expanded form for the number 165.038 is 100+60+5+0.03+0.008.
<h3>What is the expended form of decimal numbers?</h3>Writing decimals in expanded form simply means writing each number according to its place value. This is done by multiplying each digit by its place value and adding them together. Let's look at an example: 2.435. In words, we would say this as two and four hundred thirty-five thousandths.
In the given question expended form 100+60+5+30+8 is wrong.
After decimal point the first digit is at the tenth place and second digit at the hundredth place and third is at the thousandth place and so on....
165.038 = 100+60+5++
+
= 100+60+5+0.03+0.008
Hence, The correct expended form of the given number is 100+60+5+0.03+0.008.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the expression:
To simplify, simply combine the like terms. Therefore:
Further notes:
To understand why we can combine like terms in the first place, we just need to use the distributive property. So we have the expression:
Now, factor out a y from the three terms:
Do all the operations inside the parenthesis:
And we moved the y back to the front!
This is the same result as before. When combining like terms, this is what we're essentially doing but without doing the distributive property manually. I hope you understand a bit better on how and why we can combine like terms!
