Combine the like terms to create an equivalent expression. 5x-x

Mathematics

Answer:

4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Like terms are terms that share the same variable (or base) and the same exponents.

5x and x are like terms in that they share the variable x but the coefficients are different.

To combine like terms you would look at the sign (in this case, a subtraction sign) and subtract the two coefficients.

There is an imaginary 1 in attached to x, so you are basically subtracting 1 from 5.

5x - x = 4x

4x is equivalent to 5x - x.

Answer:

\huge\boxed{(2,\ 3);\ (-1,\ 6)}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x^2-2x+3\to y=x^2-2x+3\\f(x)=-x+5\to y=-x+5\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=x^2-2x+3&(1)\\y=-x+5&(2)\end{array}\right

substitute (1) to (2):

x^2-2x+3=-x+5     add x to both sides

x^2-2x+x+3=-x+x+5

x^2-x+3=5        subtract 5 from both sides

x^2-x+3-5=5-5

x^2-x-2=0\\\\x^2+x-2x-2=0\\\\x(x+1)-2(x+1)=0\\\\(x+1)(x-2)=0\iff x+1=0\ \vee\ x-2=0\\\\\boxed{x=-1\ \vee\ x=2}

substitute the values of x to (2):

x=-1\\\\y=-(-1)+5=1+5=6\\\\\huge\boxed{(-1,\ 6)}\\\\x=2\\\\y=-2+5=3\\\\\huge\boxed{(2,\ 3)}

Find the median mode range and any outliers. Then describe the data using them 77777,88,555,6,99,10101010,12
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The median = 5

The mode  = 7

Range = 5

Outliers= None

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the  value of the middle term.

The median is that value which divides the data into two equal halves.

7,7,7,7,7,8,8,5,5,5,6,9,9,10,10,10,10,12

There are 18 terms . So the middle term would be 9th term value= 5

The mode is the value which is repeated the most. = 7

Range is the difference between the highest and lowest value.= 12- 7= 5

The interquartile range, IQR= q3 - q1 where q3= 10 and q1= 7

IQR= 10 −7=3

The inner fences can be found out by

q1−(1.5*IQR) and q3+(1.5*IQR)

=7−(1.5*3) and 10+(1.5*3)

Inner fences: 2.5 and 14.5

The outer fences are q1−(3*IQR) and q3+(3*IQR)

=7−(3*3) and 10+(3*3)

Outer fences: -2 and 19

So if there are any outliers in this data set, they will either be less than -2 or greater than 19. But there are no outliers.
