Can you combine like terms without formally showing the distributive property? Explain.
blsea [12.9K]
Yes you can! Say you have 5(2 + x) + 3x. The answer would be 10+8x because when you use the distributive property you will end up getting 5*2 5*x and once you multiply, it's obvious 5 times 2 is 10 and 5 times x will equal 5x. Then you add 5x and 3x and get 8x. So, the simplified expression here is 10+8x. When you have this as an answer it's proving your answer right. You can without using the distributive property. We can have 10+5x+3x and it will be your simplified expression. It's the same thing with equations too.

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line that has a slope of 5 and contains the point (-1,2)
Cloud [144]

Answer:

y - 2 = 5(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is

y-y1 = m(x-x1)  where m is the slope and ( x1,y1) is a point on the line

y - 2 = 5(x- -1)

y - 2 = 5(x+1)

Function p(x), shown below, is translated 10 units up to create function q(x).
natulia [17]

Answer: q(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 70

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

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k   <em>where a is the vertical stretch and (h, k) is the vertex.</em>

Which coordinate shifts the graph up?<em> The y-coordinate for the vertex is k.</em>

p(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 60

q(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 60 <u>+ 10</u>

       = 0.005(x - 40)² + 70
