Simplify 3a + 2b - 8a + b

Mathematics

Harlamova29_29 [7]3 years ago

To simplify 3a + 2b - 8a + b, we need to combine like terms. Like terms are terms that share common variables. In this expression, the two variables are terms with a and terms with b. The terms that have a are 3a and -8a. The terms that have b are 2b and b. Now we can separate them and simplify.

(3a - 8a) + (2b + b)

-5a + 3b

To simplify this expression, we must combine like terms. This means that we have to add or subtract the coefficients of the same variables, meaning we can only add variable a's together and variable b's together, they must stay separate.

3a + 2b - 8a + b

The first thing that we should do is to rearrange this expression so that the terms with the same variables are next to one another.

3a - 8a + 2b + b

Next, we can combine these terms by adding/subtracting their coefficients.

-5a + 3b

We can also write this as:

3b - 5a

Therefore, your answer is 3b - 5a.

Hope this helps!

For what values of k
sergey [27]

If y = cos(kt), then its first two derivatives are

y' = -k sin(kt)

y'' = -k² cos(kt)

Substituting y and y'' into 49y'' = -16y gives

-49k² cos(kt) = -15 cos(kt)

⇒   49k² = 15

⇒   k² = 15/49

⇒   k = ±√15/7

Note that both values of k give the same solution y = cos(√15/7 t) since cosine is even.

Help me answer this question about congruent triangles. 50 points available.
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

No these triangles are not congruent.

<u>Left triangle</u>

Shortest side = 6 cm

Longest side = 13 cm

3rd side = unknown but < 13

<u>Right triangle</u>

Shortest side = 6 cm

Longest side = unknown but > 13

3rd side = 13 cm

Although the shortest side of both triangles is 6 cm, the longest side of the left triangle is 13 cm, whereas the longest side of the right triangle is unknown but will be more than 13 cm.

We do not know if any of the angles are congruent.  If they were congruent, we would expect to see this marked by the same angle line(s) on each triangle.

Determine whether or not the vector field is conservative. if it is, find a function f such that f = ∇f. if the vector field is
amm1812
\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=3y^2z^3\implies f(x,y,z)=3xy^2z^3+g(y,z)

\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=6xyz^3+\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}=6xyz^3
\implies\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}=0\implies g(y,z)=h(z)

\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=9xy^2z^2+\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}=9xy^2z^2
\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}=0\implies h(z)=C

\implies f(x,y,z)=3xy^2z^3+C

The potential function exists, so \mathbf f is indeed conservative.
