Explain why 2a+3b=5ab

Mathematics

Ahat [919]3 years ago

That's not correct. The terms 2a and 3b are not like terms, so we cannot combine them to get 5ab. We simply leave it as 2a+3b.

If you had 2a+3a, then it would simplify to 5a

Similarly, 2b+3b = 5b

Or you could have 2ab+3ab = 5ab

The key is that the variable portions must match up to be able to add them.

A 3-gallon tub of ice cream yields about 90 scoops of ice cream. There are roughly 3785 cubic centimeters in 1 gallon. Determine
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The radius of the scoop is r = 3.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 3 gallons yields 90 scoops, and 1 gallon = 3785 cm³.

3 gallons = 3 × 3785 cm³ =  11355 cm³

So we have 11355 cm³ in 3 gallons which is also the volume of 90 scoops.

Since 90 scoops = 11355 cm³, then

1 scoop = 11355 cm³/90 = 126.2 cm³

Now, if each scoop is a sphere, the volume is given by V = 4πr³/3 where r is the radius of the scoop. Since we need to find the radius of the scoop, r, making r subject of the formula, we have

r = ∛(3V/4π)

Substituting V = 126.2 cm³, we have

r = ∛(3× 126.2 cm³/4π)

= ∛(378.6 cm³/12.57)

= ∛30.13 cm³

= 3.1 cm

So, the radius of the scoop is r = 3.1 cm

Pls help
Karolina [17]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look at the right side of the equation we see that the y-intercept is 2, so we will place a point on (0,2).

Next, we look to see if the slope of the graph if positive or negetive, and to see what is the slope (2x).

Finally, we look at the inequality if it is greater than (>), less than (<), greater than or equal to (_>), or less than or equal to (<_).

*Note the following:

if < then the line is dotted and the shading will be under the line.

if > then the line is dotted and the shading will be above the line.

if <_ then the line is solid and the shading will be under the line.

if _> then the line is solid and the shading will be above the line.*

It is a lot of information if you look at it, but with practice it can be made easier.

A backyard measures 30 feet by 40 feet. If the owner builds a fence around, about how many feet of fencing will be needed?
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

140 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

You will need to find the perimeter of the backyard to find how many feet of fencing will be needed

the formula for perimeter is: 2l+2w

So 2 times 30 is 60

with 2 times 40 80

60+80 is 140

Thus you will need 140 feet to cover the backyard

Hope this helps!

Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

x = 5\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

cos45° = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } , then

cos45° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{5}{x} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } ( cross- multiply )

x = 5\sqrt{2}
