3 boxes of 12″ =36 = 2 boxes of 18″
so shortest height at which the 2 stack will be the same height =36 inches
21 3/16...as a decimal
the 21 is a whole number and goes to the left of the decimal....and the fraction 3/16 goes to the right of the decimal.
3/16 = 0.1875....now add ur 21 and u get 21.1875 inches wide
2 3/8....as a decimal
3/8 = 0.375....now put ur 2 in there and it becomes 2.375 inches thick
Answer:
they are like terms
Step-by-step explanation:
the sign ± is not a matter only veriable and power
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.
