How do you combine like terms​

Mathematics

Explanation:

Combining like terms is commonly used to solve algebraic expressions. Like terms are those species or variables that are the same in any algebraic representation.

  Different mathematical operations can be performed on like species. We can add, divide, multiply, subtract, factorize, etc those terms.

Take for example;

   Solve;

        5x + 3  = 4x + 6

To solve this simply collect the like terms;

     5x  and 4x, 3 and 6 are like terms

       5x - 4x  = 6 - 3

        x  = 3

This is one way of solving problems by collecting like terms.

A steep hill has a greater slope than a flat plain. What does the slope of the line on a graph describe?
oee [108]
The slope of a line on a graph describes how "steep" the curve is by using the rise divided by the run (y=mx+b).  The slope on the line graph usually represents how much of an increase or decrease is occurring per each unit

givi [52]

Answer:

19/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Aquí, queremos escribir el número total de millas que Hans corrió en forma de una fracción impropia.

Para hacer esto, agregamos todas las millas recorridas.

Matemáticamente, eso sería 3 + 4/5 = 3 4/5 Esta es la forma de fracción mixta.

La fracción impropia es así (5 * 3) + 4/5 = 19/5

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

156.25cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangle: 2(length + width)

P=2(x+y)......equation (1)

A= xy ...........equation (2)

From equation (1)

50=2(x+y)

Divide both by two

25=x+y

x=y-25

Then the area:

From equation (2)

A=(y-25)y

The zeros will be y-25=0 and y=0 therefore y=25 and y=0

Then their average is: (25+0)/2 = 12.5

The width is 12.5 and the length is 25-12.5 which is 12.5

X=Length=12.5

Y=width=12.5

The largest area is:

12.5×12.5

156.25cm^2
