Answer:  Yes; you do combine  "-w" and "4w" ;  because they are both "like terms" ;  that is, they are both terms with the SAME first degree single variable in the entire expression.

So, to combine them:
 -w + 4w = -1w + 4w = 3w ;

and we can simplify the entire expression:

" -w + 4w + 12 " ;

to:    " 3w + 12 " .

  Hope this explanation helps!

In order for the table below to show exponential decay, what must the value of d be in the table below?
Eduardwww [97]
Let x represent the domain
Let y represent the range.

Assume that y =a*b⁻ˣ

Set x=0:
a*b⁰ = 32
a = 32

Set x=1:
32*b⁻¹ = 24
32 = 24b
b = 32/24

Set x=2:
d = 32*(32/24)⁻²
   = 32*(24/32)²
   = (32*24*24)/(32*32) = 24²/32 = 576/32
   = 18

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 10cm long. The longer leg is 2cm longer than the shorter leg. Find the side lengths of the
Crazy boy [7]
We need Pythagoras theorem here
a^2+b^2 = c^2
a, b =  legs of a right-triangle
c = length of hypotenuse

Let S=shorter leg, in cm, then longer leg=S+2 cm
use Pythagoras theorem
S^2+(S+2)^2 = (10 cm)^2
expand (S+2)^2
S^2 +   S^2+4S+4  = 100 cm^2   [collect terms and isolate]
2S^2+4S =  100-4 = 96 cm^2
simplify and form standard form of quadratic
S^2+2S-48=0
Solve by factoring
(S+8)(S-6) = 0   means (S+8)=0, S=-8
or                                   (S-6)=0, S=6
Reject nengative root, so
Shorter leg = 6 cm
Longer leg = 6+2 cm = 8 cm
Hypotenuse (given) = 10 cm
