Can you combine the terms after you distribute?

Mathematics

Answer:

  maybe

Step-by-step explanation:

You can always combine like terms, before or after any application of the distributive property.

  x(3 +4) = 3x +4x = 7x . . . . . terms combined after distributing x

  (x +1)(x +2) = x^2 +1x +2x +1 = x^2 +3x +1 . . . . . terms combined after using the distributive property

  x(3 +4x) = 3x +4x^2 . . . . . . terms cannot be combined (unlike terms)

Of course! As long as they’re like terms. You can’t combine x^2 and x.

PLEASE HELP!!!
Svetllana [295]
Vertex form is
y = a {(x - h)}^{2}  + k
where (h,k) is the vertex.
We can see that the vertex of the graph is at (2,0), and that the graph opens downwards, but does not look stretched at all.
Therefore,
a = -1
h = 2
k = 0
and our vertex form equation is
y =  -  {(x - 2)}^{2}  + 0
which is answer A

Find the perimeter of A(-3,2), B(6,6), and C(7,-1).<br><br>Please show work.
Furkat [3]

AB=√{(6+3)²+(6-2)^2}=√(81+16)=√(97)

BC=√((7-6)²+(-1-6)²)=√(50)=5√2

AC=√((7+3)²+(-1-1)²)=2√(26)

Perimeter=AB+BC+AC=√97+5√2+2√(26)

Karolina [17]
See the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that
PB+BQ=1000 ft------->PB=1000-BQ------->  equation 1

in the triangle PAB
tan 50=AB/PB----------> AB=PB*tan 50------> equation 2

in the triangle ABQ
tan 25=AB/BQ------> AB=BQ*tan 25-------> equation 3

equals equation 2 and equation 3
PB*tan 50=BQ*tan 25--------> equation 4

substitute equation 1 in equation 4

[1000-BQ]*tan 50=BQ*tan 25-----> 1000*tan 50-BQ*tan 50=BQ*tan 25
BQ*[tan 25+tan 50]=1000*tan 50-----> BQ=1000*tan 50/[tan 25+tan 50]
BQ=718.76 ft
PB=1000-718.76-----> PB=281.24 ft
AB=PB*tan 50-----> 281.24*tan 50------> 335.17 ft

the answer is
335.17 ft

How many 2 digit whole numbers are increased by 18 when they're digits are reversed
Anika [276]

This can be calculated easily.

As any two digit number can be written in the following form:

N= 10x +y

If we reverse the number now, it would become:

N' = 10y + x

So if we subtract one from the other, we should obtain 18 ( as mentioned in the question ).

N-N'= 18

=> x-y = 2

Thus, any number whose digits differ by two would be an aswer to the question.

The only numbers which satisfy this are : 13,24,35,46,57,68,79

But this would not be true for any 3 or more digit number.
