(Adding and Subtracting Polynomials)

Adding and subtracting big polynomials like these are pretty easy. You just need to combine like terms. For example:

1.)

{5x}^{2}  +  {3x}^{2}  =  {8x}^{2}

2.)

({3x}^{2}  + 5xy) + (7xy + 2) =

{3x}^{2} + 12xy + 2

(The 3x^2 and the 2 stay intact while the 5xy and 7xy combine together)

All you have to do is combine the numbers that have the same powers of x and y with each other. x^2 will combine with x^2 and xy^2 wil combine with xy^2 exc. If there is no other number with the same x and y's, then you just leave it as it is in the answer.

Now with the original question, I see a -9xy^3, and thats gonna combine with the 3xy^3 in the second polynomial and the 2xy^3 in the third one.

- 9x {y}^{3}  + 3x {y}^{3}  + 2x {y}^{3} = \\  - 4x {y}^{3}

So far we have -4xy^3, the next term is going to be a -9x^4y^3, and that's gonna combine with the 3x^4y^3 in the third one.

- 9 {x}^{4} {y}^{3}  + 3 {x}^{4}  {y}^{3}  =  - 6{x}^{4}  {y}^{3}

We now finished adding the like terms that were in the first polynomial, we will move onto the second polynomial. The first term in this one is 3xy^3, in which we already added in the first step. At this point, it doesn't look like there are any other terms that have the same x and y behind them. So we can move on and write the final answer:

- 4x {y}^{3} - 6 {x}^{4} {y}^{3}  + 7 {y}^{4}  \\ - 8 {x}^{4} {y}^{4}

(All on the same line of course)

Also, for your second question, the order does not matter in which you write the terms. I could write the 7y^4 behind the -8x^4y^4 and it would still be the same answer.

If you have any other questions let me know :) while I double check my work.

John made a triangle with all three sides the same length, 1 \frac{2}{3} ft. What is the perimeter of the triangle?
UNO [17]

Answer:

5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If all sides are of the same length, we can multiply the value of one side by 3, because a triangle has three sides (and the perimeter is all sides added together), to find the perimeter.

1\frac{2}{3} × 3

1\frac{2}{3} can be rewritten as \frac{5}{3}, so:

\frac{5}{3} × \frac{3}{1}

= \frac{15}{3}

The numerator & denominator share a common factor of 3, so:

5 ft is the final answer/perimeter.

hope this helps!
