3a plus 7. you group the whole numbers together and than the a's. so 3+4 is 7. 2a + a is 3a.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
j² - 5j²k - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
3j² - j²k - 6 - 4j²k - 2j² + 4
To simplify this polynomial, we can collect like terms. A term is number(s) or variable(s) that are grouped together by multiplication. <u>Like terms have the same variable and exponent</u>.
We have three groups of like terms:
The j-squares (j²), the j-squared k (j²k) and the constants (no variable).
Remember to include the negatives!
The j-squares are: 3j² ; -2j²
The j-squares k are: - j²k ; - 4j²k
The constants are: - 6 ; 4
Simplify:
3j² - j²k - 6 - 4j²k - 2j² + 4
Rearrange the polynomial by like terms
= (- j²k - 4j²k) + (3j² - 2j²) + (- 6 + 4)
Add or subtract the like terms
= (-5j²k) + (j²) + (-2)
Remove brackets and rearrange so the negative is not first
= j² + - 5j²k + - 2
Simplify where two signs are together. Adding a negative is subtraction.
= j² - 5j²k - 2 Simplified
12x +6 = 18 - 48 - 9x
-9x. -9x
3x +6 =18-48
-6. -6
3x = 18 -48-6
3x = -36
/3. /3
X= -12
Answer x=-12
Answer: even
Step-by-step explanation:
A function is even if f(x)=f(-x), and odd if f(x)=-f(-x). If a function satisfies neither of these, it is neither even nor odd.
Therefore, the function is <u>even</u>.
