Answer: NO

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

Let's define some of the vocabulary words so we can understand what is being asked.

trinomial: 3 terms → each term is separated by a plus or minus sign

Example: 5x² + 3x + 2

monomial: 1 term → no plus or minus sign exists in the term.

Example: 5x²

degree: the largest exponent → it can be in any of the terms.

Example: 5x² has a degree of 2

It is possible that a monomial has an exponent greater than that of a trinomial so the answer is NO!

trinomial: 5x² + 3x + 2 has a degree of 2

monomial: 5x⁴ has a degree of 4

Kristin has 4 more headbands than Nikki does. Together they have 30 headbands. The equation h + (h+ 4) = 30 can be used to

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

A) H+4

Step-by-step explanation:

I do this in a different way, but i'll do it in both

Mine:

30 ÷ 2 = 15

4 ÷ 2 = 2

15+2, 15 -2

17, 13

Kristen Has 17

Yours:

h+(h+4)=30

-4 -4

h+h = 26

2h = 26,

h = 13, Back to the equation, use 13 as a sub. for all the h's

13+(13+4) = 30

13 + 17 = 30

Hope this helps!

It was estimated that 650 people would attend bowling night, but 676 people actually attended.

Simply divide 650/676=.9615 or 96.15%. So there was 3.85% error

-1(x+5)=3[x+(2x-1)]<br> solved and justified each step

madreJ [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$-1(x+5)=3[x+2x-1)]\\\\\text{for}\ -1(x+5):\ \text{distribtutive property}\\\text{for}\ [x+(2x-1)]:\ \text{associative property}\\\\(-1)(x)+(-1)(5)=3[(x+2x)-1]\\-x-5=3(3x-1)\\\\\text{for}\ 3(3x-1):\ \text{distributive property}\\\\-x-5=(3)(3x)+(3)(-1)\\-x-5=9x-3\\\\\text{for the equation}:\ \text{addition property of equality}\\\\-x-5=9x-3\qquad\text{add 5 to both sides}\\-x-5+5=9x-3+5\\-x=9x+2\\\\\text{for the equation:}\ \text{subtraction property of equality}\\\\-x=9x+2\qquad\text{subtract}\ 9x\ \text{from both sides}$

$-x-9x=9x-9x+2\\-10x=2\\\\\text{for the equation:}\ \text{division property of equality}\\\\-10x=2\qquad\text{divide both sides by -10}\\\dfrac{-10x}{-10}=\dfrac{2}{-10}\\x=-0.2$

$\text{Distributive property:}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\text{Associative property:}\ (a+b)+c=a+(b+c)$
