Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k be the constant of proportionality.  Then we use it as follows:

2k + 3k = 500, or 5k = 500, or k = 100.

Thus, the number of picture books is 2(100) = 200, and the number of chapter books is 3(100) = 300.

As checks:  200 + 300 = 500 (books), and

200

-------- = 2/3, as specified in the problem.

300

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST What are the like terms in the algebraic expression? Negative a squared b + 6 a b minus 8 + 5 a squared b m
Minchanka [31]

Answer: B

Negative a squared b and 5 a squared b

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Negative a squared b + 6 a b minus 8 + 5 a squared b minus 6 a minus b. That is,

- a^2b + 6ab - 8 + 5a^b - 6a - b

Collecting the like term by rearranging the expression

5a^2b - a^2b + 6ab - 6a - b

The like terms in the expression above are

5a^2b - a^2b.

The correct option is B:

Negative a squared b and 5 a squared b or (-a^2b and 5a^b)
