Because like terms you add or subtract together to make it easier to do the problem. just like you do with whole numbers. you add an subtract to make the answer simpler.

Adding and subtracting like terms is the same as adding and subtracting of numbers, i.e., natural numbers, whole numbers and integers. So, the sum and the difference of several like terms is another like term whose coefficient is the sum and the difference of the coefficient of several like terms.

hope this helped:)

How many twelfths are there in 2/3 of 3/4 more than 1/3 of 3/8 ? I know the answer already, please show how you do it .
maksim [4K]
Ok so what this means is below:
\frac{2}{3}* ( \frac{3}{4}+  \frac{1}{3} * \frac{3}{8} )
Now we need to follow the rules of PEMDAS:
So inside the parentheses we need to do the multiplication first 1/3*3/8=1/8
Now we need to add 3/4 to this 1/8+3/4=7/8
Now do 2/3 of the value of the parenthesis 7/8
This is 14/24 = 7/12
Therefore there are 7 twelfths

What is the first step in solving quadratic equations by finding square roots? a. give the positive and negative answer c. squar
daser333 [38]

Answer:

C: isolate the x squared by using inverse operations

Step-by-step explanation:

This method of solving quadratic equation is used when there is only x² term and no x term. Thus;

For example, we have a quadratic equation;

x² - 1 = 80

To solve this by square root method, the first step we have to take is to isolate the x² term by inverse operation which is by addition of 1 to both sides to get rid of the -1 on the left side so that x² can be isolated.
