Explain why 2a+3b=5ab

Mathematics
2 answers:
Ahat [919]4 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.

How to find the derivative of this?
dimulka [17.4K]

I cant see all the question but this  is how you find the derivative of your function using the product rule.

Here you use the extension of the product rule to 3 factors which we'll write as:-

f(x), g(x) and h(x):-

Derivative =  f'(x) g(x) h(x) + f(x) g'(x) h(x) + f(x) g(x) h'(x)

(3x - 1)(x + 4)(2x - 1)

derivative =  3(x + 4)(2x - 1) + (3x + 1)(1)(2x - 1) + (3x - 1)(x + 4)(2)

=  3(x + 4)(2x - 1) + (3x + 1)(2x - 1) + 2(3x - 1)(x + 4)

A horizontal line passes through the point (5, –1). Which point is also on this line?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A horizontal line is a "y =  " line. So the horizontal line that goes through the point given has the equation y = -1 (-1 being the y coordinate of the point). That means that another point on this line, y = -1, will also have to have a y coordinate of -1. The only one is the last one, (-2, -1).
