Answer:
In algebra, like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers. The coefficients do not need to match.
Unlike terms are two or more terms that are not like terms, i.e. they do not have the same variables or powers. The order of the variables does not matter unless there is a power. For example, 8xyz2 and −5xyz2 are like terms because they have the same variables and power while 3abc and 3ghi are unlike terms because they have different variables. Since the coefficient doesn't affect likeness, all
Answer:
186.5 + 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
First, radify 25. Luckily it's a perfect square so it will be 5.
Second, divide within the parentheses. You're expression should look like this.
(93-5+x+42/8)2
Divide 42/8. The decimal form would be 5.25, while the fraction should be 5 1/4.
Third, solve within the parentheses from left to right. Right now you're expression should look like this:
(93-5+x+5.25)2
Add all like terms
93-5+5.25=93.25
Fourth, multiply. Right now the expression should look like this:
(93.25 + x) 2
186.5 + 2x
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the common ratio, take the second term and divide by the first term
-14/-7 = 2
Check by dividing the third term by the second term
-28/-14 = 2
The common ratio is 2
