Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Combine like terms</em>

a. 2r + 3 + 4r = (2r + 4r) + 3 = 6r + 3

b. 8 + 3d + d = (3d + d) + 8 = 4d + 8

c. mn + (-3mn) + 6 = (mn - 3mn) + 6 = -2mn + 6

d. 10s + (-10) + (-4s) = (10s - 4s) - 10 = 14s - 10

<em>Terms are called "like terms" if they have the same variable part (the same letters in the same powers). Like terms differ at most coefficient.</em>

Q.6. The equation of the ellipse whose centre is at the origin and the x-axis, the major axis, which passes

azamat

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Equation of the ellipse = 3x² + 5y² = 32

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

<h2>Given:</h2>

The centre of the ellipse is at the origin and the X axis is the major axis

It passes through the points (-3, 1) and (2, -2)

The equation of the ellipse

<h2>Solution:</h2>

The equation of an ellipse is given by,

$\sf \dfrac{x^2}{a^2} +\dfrac{y^2}{b^2} =1$

Given that the ellipse passes through the point (-3, 1)

Hence,

$\sf \dfrac{(-3)^2}{a^2} +\dfrac{1^2}{b^2} =1$

Cross multiplying we get,

9b² + a² = 1 ²× a²b²
a²b² = 9b² + a²

Multiply by 4 on both sides,

4a²b² = 36b² + 4a²------(1)

Also by given the ellipse passes through the point (2, -2)

Substituting this,

$\sf \dfrac{2^2}{a^2} +\dfrac{(-2)^2}{b^2} =1$

Cross multiply,

4b² + 4a² = 1 × a²b²
a²b² = 4b² + 4a²-------(2)

Subtracting equations 2 and 1,

3a²b² = 32b²
3a² = 32
a² = 32/3----(3)

Substituting in 2,

32/3 × b² = 4b² + 4 × 32/3
32/3 b² = 4b² + 128/3
32/3 b² = (12b² + 128)/3
32b² = 12b² + 128
20b² = 128
b² = 128/20 = 32/5

Substituting the values in the equation for ellipse,

$\sf \dfrac{x^2}{32/3} +\dfrac{y^2}{32/5} =1$

$\sf \dfrac{3x^2}{32} +\dfrac{5y^2}{32} =1$

Multiplying whole equation by 32 we get,

3x² + 5y² = 32

<h3>Hence equation of the ellipse is 3x² + 5y² = 32</h3>

Five more than three times a number is that number increased by 40. What is the number

rewona [7]

Let the number be n.

Then 3n+5 = n+40
Combining like terms, we get

2n = 35, and so n = 35/7, or 17 1/2.
