You have used the Distributive Property to transform numerical expressions such as (5)(3) + (2)(3) to (5 + 2)(3). How would you

transform 5x + 2x into a single term? Substitute five different values into the expressions 5x + 2x and 7x - 1. What do you notice about the values of the expressions? Is there any value that would make the two expressions equal? Why or why not?

5x + 2x.....combine like terms..... = 7x

5x + 2x....subbing in 1                               7x - 1....subbing in 1
5(1) + 2(1) = 5 + 2 = 7                               7(1) - 1 = 7 - 1 = 6

5x + 2x...subbing in 2                                 7x - 1...subbing in 2
5(2) + 2(2) = 10 + 4 = 14                            7(2) - 1 = 14 - 1 = 13

5x + 2x...subbing in 3                                 7x - 1...subbing in 3
5(3) + 2(3) = 15 + 6 = 21                            7(3) - 1 = 21 - 1 = 20

5x + 2x...subbing in 4                                 7x - 1....subbing in 4
5(4) + 2(4) = 20 + 8 = 28                            7(4) - 1 = 28 - 1 = 27

5x + 2x...subbing in 5                                 7x - 1...subbing in 5
5(5) + 2(5) = 25 + 10 = 35                          7(5) - 1 = 35 - 1 = 34


5x + 2x result values are 1 more then 7x - 1 result values
there are no values that will make the 2 expressions equal....
because 5x + 2x = 7x......and the other one is 7x - 1......so the 7x - 1 values will always be 1 number less...because ur subtracting one

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

√81 = 9   (9+9-4*2)

4 * 2 = 8  (9+9-8)

9 + 9 = 18 (18 - 8)

18 - 8 = 10

Write the equation of the line through (-2,1) and parallel to y= -3x+1
DedPeter [7]
Use point slope equation y-y1=m(x-x1) Remember that a parallel line has the same slope.

y-1= -3(x-(-2))
y-1= -3(x+2)
y-1= -3x-6
y= -3x-5

Final answer: y=-3x-5

Compare the line passing through the points (−3, −11) and (6, 4) to the line given by the equation y=35x−6.
Aleks04 [339]
Let
<span>A------> (−3, −11)
B------>  (6, 4)

step 1
find the slope m point A and point B
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)-----> </span>m=(4+11)/(6+3)----> m=15/9---> 5/3

step 2
with m=5/3 and point B (6, 4)  find the equation of a line
y-y1=m*(x-x1)-----> y-4=(5/3)*(x-6)---> y=(5/3)x-6

case <span>a. they have the same slope------> is not correct
because
</span><span>y=35x−6------> the slope m=35
</span>y=(5/3)x-6---> the slope m =5/3

case <span>b. they have the same x-intercept.----> is not correct
because
</span>the x-intercept is for y=0

y=35x−6-----> 0=35x-6----> 35x=6-----> x=6/35
the x-intercept is the point (6/35,0)

y=(5/3)x-6----> 0=(5/3)x-6----> (5/3)x=6---> x=18/5
the x-intercept is the point (18/5,0)

case <span>c. the two lines are perpendicular. do. they have the same y-intercept-----> is nor correct
because

if two lines are perpendicular
m1*m2=-1-------> </span><span>this condition is not satisfied
</span>
the y intercept is for x=0

y=35x−6-------> y=-6
the y intercept is the point (0,-6)

y=(5/3)x-6-----> y=-6
the y intercept is the point (0,-6)

 they have the same y-intercept but the two lines are not perpendicular

How do I solve 4/9+9/2 and write my answer as a mixed number?
jenyasd209 [6]

9 has factors of 3*3.

2 is prime, so no factors.

from those two denominators, we can get the LCD of hmmm simply their product, namely 18.

\bf \cfrac{4}{9}+\cfrac{9}{2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{using the LCD of 18}}{\cfrac{(2)4+(9)9}{18}}\implies \cfrac{8+81}{18}\implies \cfrac{89}{18}\implies 4\frac{17}{18}

now, recall that, to get the mixed fraction, we divide 89 ÷ 18, the quotient goes up front, the "4", and the remainder is the one atop, the "17".
