You need to add like terms.

Example: 2x + 4y + 8x
Like Terms: 2x,8x
2x + 8x = 10x

New Equation =
10x + 4y

To combine variables, they need to be like terms.
Ex- x+x= 2x

F(x)=8x^2-2x+3<br> g(x)=12x^2+4x-3<br> what is h(x)=f(x)-g(x)?

Trava [24]

Answer: $h(x)=-4x^2-6x+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the function h(x), you need to subtract the function $f(x)=8x^2-2x+3$ and the function $g(x)=12x^2+4x-3$ .

$h(x)=f(x)-g(x)\\h(x)=8x^2-2x+3-(12x^2+4x-3)$

Distribute the negative sign:

$h(x)=8x^2-2x+3-12x^2-4x+3$

Now you can add the like terms:

$h(x)=-4x^2-6x+6$

Therefore, you get that the function h(x) is:

$h(x)=-4x^2-6x+6$

Assume that random guesses are made for seven multiple choice questions on an SAT test, so that there are equals 7 trials, eac

NeTakaya

Answer: 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for binomial probability :-

$P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$ , where P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trials , n is the total number of trials and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

Given : The number of trails : n=7

The probability of success for each trial : p=0.5

Now, the probability that the number x of correct answers is fewer than 4 will be :-

$P(x$

Hence, the probability that the number x of correct answers is fewer than 4 = 0.5
