That's not correct. The terms 2a and 3b are not like terms, so we cannot combine them to get 5ab. We simply leave it as 2a+3b.
If you had 2a+3a, then it would simplify to 5a
Similarly, 2b+3b = 5b
Or you could have 2ab+3ab = 5ab
The key is that the variable portions must match up to be able to add them.
Answer:
<u>-22</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
When you multiply a positive and negative number together, it becomes negative.
Multiplication is repetitive addition.
11(-2) = -11 + -11 = -22
The answer will be $13.72 for 7 bags of popcorn.
to find this answer, you first take 5.88 and divide it by 3 to find out how much one bag costs.
the answer to 5.88/3 is 1.96, so you multiply 1.96 by 7 to get the answer of how much 7 bags of popcorn will cost.
hope this helps!
