In order for terms to be like terms they must have?

2 answers:

7 0

They must have the same coefficient for example I can add: 2j + 5j= 7j but I can’t add 3j + 5l because j and l are not like terms .

They must have the same variable with the same exponent. The coefficient doesn't matter much.

Which symbol correctly compares these two fractions? 6/9 ? 2/3. A = B < C >

brilliants [131]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that you can simplify 6/9 because both the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) can be divided by 3. Therefore, you divide them by 3 to get 2/3. 2/3 cannot be simplified anymore. 2/3 is equal to 2/3. Therefore, the answer is A.

What is the measure of RPQ

patriot [66]

Answer:

239

Step-by-step explanation:

SP is the diameter so Arc RP is supplementary to Arc SR

$31 + x = 180$

$x = 149$

Arc PQ is supplementary to Arc SQ so

$90 + x = 180$

$x = 90$

Arc Addition:

$149 + 90 = 239$

Answer:

width = 8 feet and length = 12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be w then the length = 3w - 12 ( 12 less than 3 times the width )

The area (A) of a rectangle is

A = length × width, that is

w(3w - 12) = 96 ← area of floor

3w² - 12w = 96 ( subtract 96 from both sides )

3w² - 12w - 96 = 0 ← in standard form for a quadratic equation

Divide all terms by 3

w² - 4w - 32 = 0

Consider the product of the factors of the constant term ( - 32) which sum to give the coefficient of the w- term (- 4)

The factors are - 8 and + 4, since

- 8 × 4 = - 32 and - 8 + 4 = - 4, hence

(w - 8)(w + 4) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for w

w - 8 = 0 ⇒ w = 8

w + 4 = 0 ⇒ w = - 4

However, w > 0 ⇒ w = 8

Hence width = 8 feet

length = 3w - 12 = (3 × 8) - 12 = 24 - 12 = 12 feet

Find an equation of the line passing through the given points (1,-3) and (3,3)

chubhunter [2.5K]

ANSWER: y= 3x - 6

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

(1,-3) and (3,3)

X1=1 X2=3

Y1= - 3 Y2=3

1) Find the slope of the line.

To find the slope of the line passing through these two points we need to use the slope formula:

m = $\frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}$

m= $\frac{3-(-3)}{3-1}$ m= $\frac{6}{2}$ = 3

2)Use the slope to find the y-intercept.

Now that we know the slope of the line is 3 we can plug the slope into the equation and we get:

y= 3x+b

Next choose one of the two point to plug in for the values of x and y. It does not matter which one of the two points you choose because you should get the same answer in either case. I generally just choose the first point listed so I don’t have to worry about which one I should choose.

y= 3x+b point (1,-3)

-3= 3(1) + b

-3-3=b

-6=b

3)Write the answer.

Using the slope of 3 and the y-intercept of -6 the answer is:

y = 3x - 6
