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

A quadrilateral has its interior angles X, 47, 95, 82. Find<br>the value of x​
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

x=136

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the measure of the sum of the interior angles use the formula (n-2) times 180 where n is the number of sides.

A quadrilateral has 4 sides. (4-2) times 180. 2 times 180=360

The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360.

x+47+95+82=360

x+ 224 = 360

x= 136

The rectangle below has an area of x^2-7x+10square meters and a width of x - 5 meters. What expression represents the length of
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

L = (x - 2) meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle = (x² - 7x + 10) m²

The width = (x - 5) m

length = ?

Area of a rectangle = length × width

x² - 7x + 10 = L(x -5)

note L = length

divide both sides by (x-5)

(x² - 7x + 10)/(x - 5) = L

L = x² - 7x + 10 / (x -5)

Factorize x² - 7x + 10

find the numbers you can multiply to give you 10 and also add to give you -7

The numbers are -2 and -5. Therefore,

x² - 2x - 5x + 10 = 0

x(x - 2) - 5(x - 2) = 0

(x-5)(x-2) = 0

Let us go back to our division

L = x² - 7x + 10 / (x -5)

x² - 7x + 10 = (x-5)(x-2)

L = (x-5)(x-2) / (x -5)

L = (x - 2) meters
