I believe you are expected to simplify. To do this all you do is group like terms (x, x², x³ etc.) and then simplify the coefficients.
13. 10z + 7z - 19z² - 5z² - 17z
first you can rearrange and group like terms (remember the bring the sign in front of each term with it). I would do it like this:
-19z² - 5z² +10z + 7z - 17z
Now simplify the coefficients:
-24z² + 0z
you can omit the 0z and your simplified answer is
-24z²
Main thing to remember here is that z and z² cannot be simplified together, nor can any variable that has an exponent because the exponent makes them differ.
Identify the improper fraction. The improper fraction will have a higher number on top than on the bottom. For example, 7/4.Divide the top number, or numerator, by the bottom number, the denominator, to determine how many times the denominator fits into the numerator. In the 7/4 example, the denominator fits in one time, leaving three left over.Write the amount of times the denominator fits into the numerator as a whole number. In the 7/4 example, the answer is "1."Display the leftover number as a fraction on the right side of the whole number. In the 7/4 example, the answer is "3/4," since 7 divided by 4 equals 1 with a remainder of 3. The mixed number should look like this: "1 3/4."
Answer:
$20.99
Step-by-step explanation:
The sale causes the original price to be multiplied by 1 - 20% = 80%. The tax causes the sale price to be multiplied by 1 + 5% = 105%. The net effect is that the original price is multiplied by the product of these values:
final cost = $24.99(0.80)(1.05) = $20.99
