Step-by-step explanation:

In order to be like terms, the variables and exponents must be the same.

3a can be combined with 14a and 4a.

4b can be combined with 3b and 16b.

a² cannot be combined with any of the terms.

Two collinear points on a line are given in the table below:

katrin [286]

Answer:

$(4,3)$ and $(7,2)$ do not lie on the line

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$(0,0)\ and\ (2,1)$

Required

Determine which points that are not on the line

First, we need to determine the slope (m) of the line:

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2- x_1}$

Where

$(x_1,y_1) = (0,0)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (2,1)$

So;

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2- x_1}$

$m = \frac{1 - 0}{2-0}$

$m = \frac{1}{2}$

Next, we determine the line equation using:

$y - y_1 = m(x -x_1)$

Where

$m = \frac{1}{2}$

$(x_1,y_1) = (0,0)$

$y - y_1 = m(x -x_1)$ becomes

$y - 0 = \frac{1}{2}(x - 0)$

$y = \frac{1}{2}x$

To determine which point is on the line, we simply plug in the values of x to in the equation check.

For $(4,2)$

$x = 4$ and $y =2$

Substitute 4 for x and 2 for y in $y = \frac{1}{2}x$

$2 = \frac{1}{2} * 4$

$2 = \frac{4}{2}$

$2=2$

<em>This point is on the graph</em>

<em></em>

For $(4,3)$

$x = 4$ and $y = 3$

Substitute 4 for x and 3 for y in $y = \frac{1}{2}x$

$3 = \frac{1}{2} * 4$

$3 = \frac{4}{2}$

$3 \neq 2$

<em>This point is not on the graph</em>

<em></em>

For $(7,2)$

$x = 7$ and $y = 2$

Substitute 7 for x and 2 for y in $y = \frac{1}{2}x$

$2 = \frac{1}{2} * 7$

$2 = \frac{7}{2}$

$2 \neq 3.5$

<em></em>

<em>This point is not on the graph</em>

<em></em>

<em></em> $(\frac{4}{8},\frac{2}{8})$ <em></em>

<em></em> $x = \frac{4}{8}$ and<em> </em> $y = \frac{2}{8}$ <em></em>

<em>Substitute </em> $\frac{4}{8}$ <em> for x and </em> $\frac{2}{8}$ <em> for y in </em> $y = \frac{1}{2}x$ <em></em>

<em></em> $\frac{2}{8} = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{4}{8}$ <em></em>

<em></em> $\frac{2}{8} = \frac{1 * 4}{8 * 2}$ <em></em>

<em></em> $\frac{2}{8} = \frac{4}{16}$ <em></em>

<em></em> $\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{4}$ <em></em>

<em></em>

<em>This point is on the graph</em>

Q bisects PR, PQ=3y, and PR=42. Find y and QR.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

|PR| = |PQ| + |QR|; |PQ| = |QR| conclusion |PR| = 2|PQ|

|PQ| = 3y; |PR| = 42; |QR|=?

subtitute

42 = 2(3y)
6y = 42 |divide both sides by 6
y = 7

|QR| = 3(7) = 21

Which of the following correctly expresses the number 65.824?

JulijaS [17]

The expression of the decimal number 65.8246 in word form is; tens + 5 ones + 8 tenths + 2 hundredths + 4 thousandths

<h3>How to express decimal numbers?</h3>

A decimal is a number that consists of a whole and a fractional part. Decimal numbers lie between integers and represent numerical value for quantities that are whole plus some part of a whole.

Now, we are given the decimal number 65.824 to write in words. This can be written as;

6 tens + 5 ones + 8 tenths + 2 hundredths + 4 thousandths

The reason for the above is that we can rewrite the given decimal in fraction form as;

60 + 5 + 8/10 + 2/100 + 4/1000
