Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms

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

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.

What is the solution to the equation x/2-4=6

-Dominant- [34]

Answer

x = 20

Explanation

Multiply the entire equation by 2 to get rid of the fraction.

x/2 * 2 = x

-4 * 2 = -8

6 * 2 = 12

Now, we have:

x - 8 = 12

To complete, add 8 to both sides

x = 20

Need help on number 6 and 13 plz

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6A) Death Valley is located below sea level. It says it is -282 feet. This means that it is below 0 and sea level is marked at 0.

6B) 5280 + 282 = 5562 ft higher

6C) The closer you get to the ocean the closer you are to 0. If you were in the water floating on top you would be at 0.

13) all 3 are 28

The parenthesis have to stay. This is how we know to distrubute the 2 across the problem.

On Martin's first stroke, his golf ball traveled 4/5 of the distance to the hole. On his second stroke, the ball traveled 79 met

Sav [38]

Answer:

0.395 kilometre

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

On Martin's first stroke, his golf ball traveled 4/5 of the distance to the hole.

On his second stroke, the ball traveled 79 meters and went into the hole.

Question asked:

How many kilometres from the hole was Martin when he started?

Solution:

Let distance from Martin starting point to the hole in meters = $x$

On Martin's first stroke, ball traveled = $\frac{4}{5} \ of \ total \ distance\ to\ the\ hole$

$=\frac{4}{5} \times x=\frac{4x}{5}$

On his second stroke, the ball traveled and went to the hole = 79 meters

Total distance from starting point to the hole = Ball traveled from first stroke + Ball traveled from second stroke

$x=\frac{4x}{5} +79\\ \\ Subtracting\ both\ sides\ by \ \frac{4x}{5}\\ \\ x- \frac{4x}{5}= \frac{4x}{5}- \frac{4x}{5}+79\\ \\ \frac{5x-4x}{5} =79\\ \\ By \ cross\ multiplication\\ \\ x=79\times5\\ \\ x=395\ meters$

Now, convert it into kilometre:

1000 meter = 1 km

1 meter = $\frac{1}{1000}$

395 meters = $\frac{1}{1000}\times395=0.395\ kilometre$

Thus, there are 0.395 kilometre distance from Martin starting point to the hole.

Brain was asked to round 4.44 to the nearest tenth and said it was 4.5 Is he correct?Why or Why not?

Annette [7]

Brian (I think you meant Brian haha..) is incorrect because the tenth place is the number right after the decimal which is a 4. If you are rounding to the tenth place that means that you have to look at the number to the right of that, which is 4. 5 and up means you round up and 4 and down means you round down. This is a 4, so you keep the 4 after the decimal and get rid of the last 4. Therefore, when rounded it would be: 4.4.
Hope this helped! Good luck! :)
