Answer:

Yes, x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

3 x - 2 x + 12

Grouping like terms, 3 x - 2 x + 12 = (3 x - 2 x) + 12:

(3 x - 2 x) + 12

3 x - 2 x = x:

Answer:

<em>Yes, it is.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 12 - 2x =

Use the commutative property of addition to change the order of the addition.

= 12 + 3x - 2x

Use the distributive property of addition over multiplication in reverse (which is factoring).

= 12 + x(3 - 2)

Do the operation: 3 - 2 = 1

= 12 + x * 1

Simplify x * 1 to just x.

= 12 + x

Use the commutative property of addition.

= x + 12

There you have x + 12 from 3x + 12 - 2x by using properties and operations.

We have no idea how 'b' is related to the parent function, or to the graph,
or to anything else, so no answer is possible.  From just the information
given in the question, 'b' has no effect whatsoever on the graph, or on
how much rain Chicago will get next week.or on how much my dog will

What is the relationship between the values of the given digits 7's in 7'700
GaryK [48]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given number is 7700.

We need to find the relationship between the values of the digit 7s in it.

The digit in the extreme left is 7 and second no is again 7.

The place value of first 7 is 7000

The place value of second 7 is 700.

Taking ratio of place value of 7 in first 7 and for second 7 as follows :

R=\dfrac{7000}{700}\\\\R=10

So, value of first 7 is 10 times that of the value of second 7.
