What is the simplified form of the expression 3a + 7 - a - 7

You can simplify expressions by simplifying parentheses by using the distributive property and combing like terms.

Combining like terms is the process of adding up numbers with the same variable(s) and exponent. If a term does not have an exponent then an exponent of 1 is implied.

There is no parentheses in the expression 3a + 7 - a - 7
But, there are like terms in the expression.

Which are the like terms?

3a and a are both like terms. They both have the same variables and they both have the same exponent.

7 and -7 are like terms, too.

3a + 7 - a - 7
2a

So, 2a is the simplified version.

Hi so -7 and +7 cancel out to be 0. 3a-a is 2a. So it's 2a+0. You don't need the +0 so it's just 2a

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = x + 2?

nadya68 [22]

Answer: $h(x)=x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of the function $f(x) = x + 2$ , the first step is to replace f(x) with "y":

$f(x) =y= x + 2\\\\ y = x + 2$

The second step is to solve for the variable "x":

$x=y-2$

The third step is to interchange the variables, then:

$y=x-2$

Finally, let be h(x) the inverse of the function f(x). Then, you can replace "y" with h(x). Therefore, this is:

$h(x)=x-2$

The angle is in the 3rd quadrant so you subtract 180° from it giving you 23°

A raffle prize of 14x^2/15dollars is to be divided among 7x people. Write an expression for the amount of money that each person

vladimir2022 [97]

For this case we must divide the following expression:

$\frac {\frac {14x ^ 2} {15}} {7x}$

And in this way we get the amount of money that each person will receive.

Then applying double C we have:

$\frac {14x ^ 2} {15 * 7x} =\\\frac {14x ^ 2} {105x} =\\0.133x$

Thus, each person has 0.133x of money!

Answer:

0.133x
