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

There are 267 students and 21 adults going on a field trip an equal number of people will ride on each bus there are 9 buses how
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The number of people on each bus is 32

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

Total number of students =267

Total number of adults =21

So,

Total number of passengers = ( Total number of students)+(Total number of adults)

now, we can plug values

Total number of passengers =267+21

Total number of passengers =288

We are given

Number of buses=9

so,

Number of passengers on each bus = (total number of passengers)/( Number of buses)

now, we can plug values

Number of passengers on each bus  is

=\frac{288}{9}

=32

So,

The number of people on each bus is 32

Which expression shows the first step in simplifying 2x – 3(x + 2y) – 5(y – 7x)?
artcher [175]

Answer: Option 3.


Step-by-step explanation:

1. To simplify the expression shown in the problem, the first step is to apply the Distributive property, this means that you must multiply the number that are outside of the parentheses by the numbers inside of them.

2. Then, you have that the first step is:

2x-3(x+2y)-5(y-7x)=2x-3x-6y-5y+35x

3. Therefore, you can conclude that the correct answer is the third option.

Find the coordinates of the center and the measure of the radius for a circle whose equation is (x-3)^2 + (y-7)^2=2
igomit [66]

Answer:

fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

(x - 3)² + (y - 7)² = 2 ← is in standard form

with centre = (h, k) = (3, 7) and r² = 2 ⇒ r = \sqrt{2}
