Answer:
(c) 5x and 3x, and 4 and 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Like terms have the same variable(s) to the same power(s).
The terms of this expression are ...
- x^3: variable x, power 3
- 5x: variable x, power 1
- -3x: variable x, power 1
- 3y: variable y, power 1
- 4: no variable
- -1: no variable
The like terms are {5x, -3x}, which have the x-variable to the first power, and {4, -1}, which have no variable.
X=4 or X=-4 because 4(4)^2 does =64
We are given with
a1 = 2
r = 4
These are components of a geometric series. The first term is 2 and the common ratio is 4. To get the first six terms, we use the formula:
an = a1 r^(n-1)
a1 = 2 (4)^(1-1) = 2
a2 = 2 (4)^(2-1) = 8
a3 = 2 (4)^(3-1) = 32
a4 = 2 (4)^(4-1) = 128
a5 = 2 (4)^(5-1) = 512
a6 = 2 (4)^(6-1) = 2048
