Answer:
p²q³ + pq and pq(pq² + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3p²q² - 3p²q³ +4p²q³ -3p²q² + pq
Required
Collect like terms
We start by rewriting the expression
3p²q² - 3p²q³ +4p²q³ -3p²q² + pq
Collect like terms
3p²q² -3p²q² - 3p²q³ +4p²q³ + pq
Group like terms
(3p²q² -3p²q²) - (3p²q³ - 4p²q³ ) + pq
Perform arithmetic operations on like terms
(0) - (-p²q³) + pq
- (-p²q³) + pq
Open bracket
p²q³ + pq
The answer can be further simplified
Factorize p²q³ + pq
pq(pq² + 1)
Hence, 3p²q² - 3p²q³ +4p²q³ -3p²q² + pq is equivalent to p²q³ + pq and pq(pq² + 1)
5/6 - 3/8
Rewrite the fractions to have a common denominator:
5/6 x 4 = 20/24
3/8 x 3 = 9/24
Now you have 20/24 - 9/24 = 11/24
The answer is D. 11/24
Answer:number of cupcakes sold is 13
Number of cookies sold is 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of cupcakes that Jane sold.
Let y represent the number of cookies that Jane sold.
Each cupcake sold for $2.25 and each cookie sold for $0.50. At the end of the day, Jean had sold $42.75 worth of cookies and cupcakes.
This means that
2.25x + 0.5y = 42.75 - - - - - - - - - -1
she sold 40 cupcakes and cookies combined, it means that
x + y = 40
Substituting x = 40 - y into equation 1, it becomes
2.25(40 - y) + 0.5y = 42.75
90 - 2.25y + 0.5y = 42.75
- 2.25y + 0.5y = 42.75 - 90
- 1.75y = - 47.25
y = - 47.35/-1.75
y = 27
x = 40 - y
x = 40-27 = 13
.
