y=x+5\\
z=y+6\\
x+y+z=31\\\\
x=y-5\\
z=y+6\\
x+y+z=31\\\\
y-5+y+y+6=31\\
3y=30\\
y=10\\\\
x=10-5\\
x=5\\\\
z=10+6\\

<u /><em></em>let the age of jim be x
carla's age= x+5
tomy's age= 6+5+x
sum of their ages=31
x+x+5+x+5+6=3x+16=31
3x=31-16
   =15
x=15 divided by 3
     = 5
jim's age=5
carla's age=<u />10
tomy's ag<u>e = 16</u>

What is the sum of 2x^2 and 2x^3
jeyben [28]

For this case we have the following expression:

2x ^ 2 + 2x ^ 3

The terms are not similar, so they cannot be added.

<em>Examples of similar terms:</em>

x ^ 3 + x ^ 3 = 2x ^ 3\\3x ^ 4 + 2x ^ 4 = 5x ^ 4

Then, the expression given can only be rewritten as:

2 (x ^ 2 + x ^ 3)

This is taking common factor 2 to both terms.

Answer:

2 (x ^ 2 + x ^ 3)

PLZ HELP find the y and x-intercepts. y=-2x+4 PLEASE EXPLAIN
SVEN [57.7K]

\text{Given that,}\\\\y = -2x+4\\\\\text{Plug  y= 0 to find the x-intercept,}\\\\0 = -2x +4\\\\\implies 2x = 4\\\\\implies x = \dfrac 42 = 2\\\\\text{So the x - intercept is (2,0)}  \\ \\\text{Plug x =0 to find the y-intercept.}\\\\y = -2(0) +4 = 0 +4 = 4\\\\\text{So the y - intercept is (0,4)}  \\
