Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the y-intercept represented by the given equation, we need to get the equation into slope-intercept from:

$y=mx+b$

$m=slope$

$b=y-intercept$

Start with:

$3x+2y=6$

Subtract $3x$ from both sides of the equation:

$2y=-3x+6$

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of $y$ , which is $2$ :

$y=-1.5x+3$

Identify the y-intercept:

$b=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Order of Operations, if there are any grouping symbols, you take care of them first. Second, you deal with any indices, roots, or powers. Third comes the evaluation of Division & Multiplication from left to right in the order of which you see them appear. The fourth and final step is the evaluation of Subtraction & Addition from left to right in the order of which you see them appear.

Please identify the terms, like terms, coefficients, and constants in each expression! Thank you!

Bogdan [553]

16. there are 4 terms, +4m, +3, +m, +1
+4m and +m are like terms, +3 and +1 are like terms. (Like terms can be combined, +4m+m=5m). the coefficient (the number to the right of a letter) for the term +4m is +4, the coefficient for the term +m is +1. +1 and +3 are the two constants. (constants are numbers without a letter)

I hope you can do the rest by yourself now. Note: in #18, 7j, 11jk, and k are not like terms. There are no like terms in number 18. Neither are there any like terms in #20

Chen writes down a two digit number. He finds out that if he swapped the numbers, it would be three more than the 1/3 of the ori

inna [77]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given,

Let the two digits that Chen writes down to be p and q

where,

q will be in the unit place and p will be in the tens place.

So, the value of the digit = 10p + q

So, if he swapped the number, he will have 10q + p

However,

the new number determined is thrice more than the 1/3 pf the original number.

i.e

the 1/3rd of the original number = $\dfrac{1}{3}(10p+q)$

= $\dfrac{10p+q}{3}$

thrice more than that will be = $\dfrac{10p+q}{3} + 3$

∴

$\dfrac{10p+q}{3} + 3 = 10q+p$

multiply through by 3, we have :

10p+q + 9 = 30q + 3p

collecting the like terms, we have:

10p - 3p +q -30q +9 = 0

7p - 29q +9 = 0

7p - 29q = -9

Therefore, p,q lie between 0 and 9

Therefore, the possibility of the original number is p = 7 and q = 2
