First one:
you can add -10m and -13m but you can't add -10m and 2m^4 becuase the powers aren't the same so
when adding the like terms
look at the:
powers, (x^3 adds with x^3)
placehloder letter (x adds with x and y adds with y and so on)
-10m+2m^4-13m-20m^4
powers: m^1 and M^4
placeholders: all m
add
-10m-13m+2m^4-20m^4
-23m-18m^4
second one:
when multiplying exponents, you add with like
so if you multipliy
x^2yz^3 times x^4y^2z^2 thne you would get x^6y^3z^5
when multiply with coeficients
2x^2yz^3 times 4x^4y^2z^2=8x^6y^3z^5
so using associative property a(bc)=(ab)c
2/3 times p^4 times y^3 times y^4 times s^5 times 6 times p^2 times s^3
group like terms
(2/3 times 6) times (p^4 times p^2) times (y^3 times y^4) times (s^5 times s^3)
(4) times (p^6) times (y^7) times (s^8)
4p^6y^7s^8
0 and 2
f(x) = g(x) will be the input or x value at which f and g have the same output or y value. Look in the table where two numbers repeat right next to each other.
−1 −7/2 −9/2
0 −3 −3
1 −2 −3/2
2 0 0
3 4 3/2
4 12 3
5 28 9/2
There are two solutions to f(x) = g(x) which are x=0 and x=2.
516+497+501+528+476= 2518
2518/5= 503.6
round up to 504
