Answer:

In algebra, like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers. The coefficients do not need to match.

Unlike terms are two or more terms that are not like terms, i.e. they do not have the same variables or powers. The order of the variables does not matter unless there is a power. For example, 8xyz2 and −5xyz2 are like terms because they have the same variables and power while 3abc and 3ghi are unlike terms because they have different variables. Since the coefficient doesn't affect likeness, all

Evaluate the function f(x)=x^2-5x+ 5 at the given values of the independent variable and simplify

11111nata11111 [884]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is :

$f(x)=x^2-5x+ 5$

(a) To find f(9), put x = 9 in the above expression.

$f(9)=9^2-5(9)+ 5=41$

(b) To find f(x+7), put x = x+7 in the above expression.

$f(x+7)=(x+7)^2-5(x+7)+ 5\\\\=x^2+14x+49-5x-35+5\\\\=x^2+9x+19$

$f(-x)=(-x)^2-5(-x)+ 5\\\\=x^2+5x+5$

Hence, this is the required solution.

HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPP<br> Solve for x and y

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

x = 0, y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

10x = 5y + 5

y = 2x - 1

======================

10x = 5(2x - 1) + 5

10x = 10x - 5 + 5

x = 0

======================

y = 2x - 1

y = -1

What is equivalent to 7-2(x+2)<-4-3(1-x)

Alex_Xolod [135]

after solving $7-2(x+2)$ we get $x>2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of x in:

$7-2(x+2)$

Solving:

$7-2(x+2)$

So, after solving $7-2(x+2)$ we get $x>2$

In a study of bat migration habits, 240 male bats and 160 female bats have been tagged. If 100 more female bats are tagged, how

valentinak56 [21]

Remark
The way you have to set this up is to take the new number for the males and put it over the total for the males and females. The new number for the males / total = 3/5.

Step One
Find the total number of females
100 + 160 = 260 when 100 females have been added to the study.

Step Two
Find the number of males
The total number of males = 240 + x where x is the number of males to be added.

Step Three
Find the total for both
260 + 240 + x = Total
500 + x = Total.

Step Four
Find the ratio of males to total
(240 + x) / (500 + x) = 3/5

Step Five
Cross multiply and solve
(240 + x)*5 = (500+x)*3
1200 + 5x = 1500 + 3x Subtract 1200 from both sides.
5x = 1500 - 1200 + 3x
5x = 300 + 3x Subtract 3x from both sides.
5x - 3x = 300
2x = 300 Divide by 2
x = 300 / 2
x = 150

Check
(240 + 150 ) / (500 + 150) = ? 3/5
390 / 650 = ? 3/5
39/65 = ? 3/5 Divide the top and bottom on the left by 13
3/5 = 3/5 and it checks.
