Why can you NOT combine 3x and 5x^2 ?

Mathematics

Although they are the same variable, you cannot add two variables raised to different powers. 3x^1 + 5x^2 cannot work, but 3x^2 + 5x^2 can. Also, if you are multiplying them, they would combine to be 15x^3, as 3 and 5 (The coefficients) multiply together and x^2 times x^1 = x^3.

I hope that helps.

  • 15 miles ‐---------- x minutes

So:

\frac{2}{23}  =  \frac{15}{x}

=  > x =  \frac{172.5}{60}  =   \frac{23}{8}  = 2.875 \: hours

Answer: 2.875 hours
