Answer:

8x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum is found by combining "like" terms—those that have the same arrangement of variables.

The first expression, 2x +6, has terms 2x and 6.

The second expression, 6x -1, has terms 6x and -1.

In each case, the first term listed is first-degree in the variable x. These are "like" terms, so can be added:

... 2x +6x = (2+6)x = 8x

The second term listed in each case is a constant. These are "like" terms, so can be added:

... 6 + (-1) = 5

Then the sum of the given expressions is the sum of the results from adding like terms:

... 8x + 5

Jordan flipped a coin 492 times. Which of the following would be a good estimate of the number of times the coin landed on heads

Irina-Kira [14]

I'd say B. but that's only because I divided the number of times he flipped the coin by the number of sides it has, 2, and came up with 246. The closest number on here to that is 231 or B. I hope I helped.

An artist purchased 24 high quality canvases to be used for painting this fall. Each week she will allow herself to use three of

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

canvases over weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

w(h) represents how many hours per week

c(t) approximates how many canvases she paints per hour

In function composition, if we have two function f(x) and g(x) then

(f.g)(x) or f(g(x)) means first apply g(), then apply f() i.e. applying function f to the results of function g.

Now we have c(w(h)), this means first we apply w(h) which will give us hours per week and then we'll apply function 'c' on the results of 'w' (that is number of hours for weeks painted). As result we'll get number of canvas per week!

The area of a quadrilateral is 64 in^2. The length of the quadrilateral is 32 in. How wide is the quadrilateral?

Mars2501 [29]

Answer: 2 inches

Explanation: The area formula is length times width (L*w=a). We know that the area is 64in^2 (a=64) and the length is 32in (L=32), so we put those values into the equation and get 32*w=64. We then get w by itself by dividing both sides by 32, and get w=2. so the width is 2 inches.
