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

Es The measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon is 120°. What is the measurb of each exterior angle? The polygon has
Troyanec [42]

The measure of each exterior angle is 60° and the polygon has 6 sides ⇒ 4th answer

Step-by-step explanation:

In a regular n-side polygon:

  • All sides are equal in lengths
  • All angles are equal in measure
  • The measure of each interior angle = \frac{(n-2)*180}{n}
  • The measure of each exterior angle = \frac{360}{n}
  • The sum of interior angle and exterior angle at a vertex is 180°

∵ The measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon is 120°

∵ The sum of interior angle and exterior angle at a vertex = 180°

∴ The measure of each exterior angle = 180 - 120

∴ The measure of each exterior angle = 60°

∵ The measure of each exterior angle = \frac{360}{n}

- Substitute the measure of the exterior angle by 60

∴ 60=\frac{360}{n}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 60 n = 360

- Divide both sides by 60

∴ n = 6

∴ The polygon has 6 sides

The measure of each exterior angle is 60° and the polygon has 6 sides

Juan told Sylvia he got a $0.50 raise this week and his new hourly rate will be $10.25 an hour. Sylvia wants to know what Juan’s
zhenek [66]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

r + 0.50 = 10.25: Subtract .50 from both sides. The answer is $9.75.

This is because Juan got a $0.50 raise which means that his new rate will be $0.50 more than his original rate (r).
