Answer:

Like terms are numbers with or without variables that have the same variables.

Step-by-step explanation:

5x and 3x are like terms because they have the same variable.

5x and 3y are not like terms because the variables are different.

To combine them, just add or subtract them. You cannot combine non-like terms!

Answer:

Definition: Like terms - Term in math that have the same variables or powers.

Ex. 2x, -5x, and 7x.

Combine Them: 2x + 7x = 9x - 5x = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the value of x in the diagram below?

otez555 [7]

The cosine of 30° is √3 / 2.

Since cosine is Adjacent over Hypotenuse, Hypotenuse = (2 / √3) * 9 = 18 / √3.

The cosine of 45° is √2 / 2.

Therefore, X = (2 / √2) * (18 / √3) = 36 / √6 = 18 / √1.5 = C

How do you solve for y?

I’m pretty sure you just solve exactly like that
-7(-2)-1 =13 at least I’m told that \_( •-• )_/

Enter the coefficients of the fifth Taylor polynomial T5(x) for the function f(x) = x5−3x4+2x2+5x−2 based at b=1. T5(x)= + (x−1)

DENIUS [597]

Compute the necessary values/derivatives of $f(x)$ at $x=1$ :

$f(1)=3$

$f'(1)=2$

$f''(1)=-12$

$f'''(1)=-12$

$f^{(4)}(1)=48$

$f^{(5)}(1)=120$

Taylor's theorem then says we can "approximate" (in quotes because the Taylor polynomial for a polynomial is another, exact polynomial) $f(x)$ at $x=1$ by

$T_5(x)=\dfrac3{0!}+\dfrac2{1!}(x-1)-\dfrac{12}{2!}(x-1)^2-\dfrac{12}{3!}(x-1)^3+\dfrac{48}{4!}(x-1)^4+\dfrac{120}{5!}(x-1)^5$

$T_5(x)=3+2(x-1)-6(x-1)^2-2(x-1)^3+2(x-1)^4+(x-1)^5$

###

Another way of doing this would be to solve for the coefficients $a,b,c,d,e,g$ in

$f(x)=a+b(x-1)+c(x-1)^2+d(x-1)^3+e(x-1)^4+g(x-1)^5$

by expanding the right hand side and matching up terms with the same power of $x$ .

You are running a fuel economy study. One of the cars you find are mmiles on a blue. It can travel 29 1\2 miles on a1 1\4 gallon

Y_Kistochka [10]

Blue car get's 23.6mpg while Red car gets 28mpg.
On one gallon of fuel, Red car will travel 4.4 miles further than Blue car.
