Like terms are when numbers with and without variables can be combined. ex: 4x+6-8x+=32
you would first combine 4x and -8x because they are the same.

Like terms are terms that have the same root and coefficient. For example, 2x and 3x both have the same variable, so you can combine them (add them). 

2x + 3x = 5x

You combine the coefficients by adding them. 2 + 3 = 5. 

Hope this helps!

Find the equation for the line that passes through the point (4,2) that is parallel to the line with the equation
siniylev [52]

Step-by-step explanation:

if they are parralel it means gradient is the same

finding equation we find another point which is (x,y)

therefore y - 2/ x - 4 should be equal to 2/3.

y - 2 = 2/3(x - 4)

y - 2 = 2/3x - 8/3

y = 2/3x - 8/3 + 2

The diagram below shows the rectangle PLUM.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Area of rectangle PLUM = 75.00 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since diagonal of rectangle divides the rectangle into two equal triangles,

Therefore, area of the rectangle PLUM = 2× area of triangle PLM

By the mean proportional theorem,

In ΔPLM,

AP² = AM × AL

6² = AM × 8

AM = \frac{36}{8}

AM = 4.5 units

Area of PLM = \frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{height})

                     = \frac{1}{2}(ML)(AP)

                     = \frac{1}{2}(8 + 4.5)(6)

                     = 12.5 × 3

                     = 37.5 units²

Now area of rectangle PLUM = 2×37.5 = 75 units²

Therefore, area of the rectangle is 75.00 square units.
