Answer:  The answer is yes.


Step-by-step explanation: According to Jaun, when we put together unequal groups, we can only add. We are to check whether he is correct or not.

Let us consider the addition of unequal groups and let the groups be linear polynomials (x-1), (x-2) and (x-3).

Then, adding these, we have

(x-1)+(x-3)+(x-4) = x-1+x-3+x-4 = 3x-8. Therefore, addition is the only thing that is possible here. We cannot multiply or use any other mathematical operation.

Again, let us consider the addition of equal groups (x-3), (x-3) and (x-3). Adding these, we have

(x-3)+(x-3)+(x-3) = 3x-9 = 3(x-3), i.e., addition can be written in multiplicative form too in case of equal groups.

Thus, when we put together unequal groups, addition is the only operation possible. Jaun is absolutely correct.

What does this equal to?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

x = 14

y = 7

z = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

x = # of cucumbers

y = # zucchini

z = # tomatoes

x + y + z = 43

2y = x  or  y = x/2

x + 8 = z

x + x/2 + x + 8 = 43

2x + x/2 = 35

4x + x = 70

5x = 70

x = 14

2y = 14

y = 7

14 + 8 = z

z = 22

Check if these variables are right:

14 + 7 + 22 = 43 ✔️

What value of x is the solution to the equation:<br> 3x – 7<br> = x +1<br> 5
Bumek [7]

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 7 = x + 15 ( subtract x from both sides )

2x - 7 = 15 ( add 7 to both sides )

2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 11
