Answer:

There are no like terms!

Step-by-step explanation:

Like terms are terms that contain the same variables, and raised to the same power. The numerical coefficients can be different, but the variables AND the exponents must be the same.

In the equation given, 2 and 5 are the coefficients. "x" is the variable, and 5 and 3 are the exponents. Even though the variables are the same, the exponents are not! This means, that each term is separate, and are not like. You cannot combine 2x^5 and 3x^3.

Hope this helps! :)

A map has a scale of 2 inches = 15 miles.If two towns are 7 inches apart on the map,how far apart are they actually

1.) set up a w_k_u chart
2.) in the w column write in on top and mi in the bottom like this
w_K_U
in_
mi_
then in the k column write 2 for in and 15 for mi
W_K_U
in_2_
mi_15_
then in the U column, you write 7 for in and x for mi
W_K_U
in_2_7
mi_15_x
then cross multiply: 2x = 15(7)
multiply 15 times 7 which is 105
2x=105
divide 2x by 2
x=105
answer 105

What is the area of this figure?

nalin [4]

Answer:

<em>290.5 square miles</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider splitting this figure into two mini rectangles and a triangle, each of given lengths;

$Dimensions of Rectangle 1 - Height ; 5 mi, Length ; 7 mi,\\Area of Rectangle 1 - Height * Length = 5 mi * 7 mi = 35 mi^2\\\\Dimensions of Rectangle 2 - Height ; 18 mi, Length ; 8 mi,\\Area of Rectangle 2 - Height * Length = 23 mi * 8 mi = 184 mi^2\\\\Dimensions of Mini Right Triangle - Height ; 11 mi, Base ; 8 + 5 = 13 mi,\\Area of Mini Right Triangle - 1 / 2 * Base * Height = 1 / 2 * 13 mi * 11 mi = 71.5 mi^2,\\\\Area of Figure = 35 mi^2 + 184 mi^2 + 71.5 mi^2 = 290.5 square miles$
