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

Two angles of a quadrilateral measure 140° and 80°. The other two angles are in a
aliina [53]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation :

Ratio = 3x : 4x

<h3>Sum of angle of a quadrilateral = 360</h3><h3>Therefore, 140+80+3x+4x = 360</h3><h3>220+7x = 360</h3><h3>7x = 360-220</h3><h3>x= 140/7</h3><h3>x=20</h3><h3>3x= 3×20=60</h3><h3>4x=4×20=80</h3>

If a couple were planning to have three​ children, the sample space summarizing the gender outcomes would​ be: bbb,​ bbg, bgb,​
MaRussiya [10]
There are two choices for each child: overweight (o) or underweight (u). So if the first child is o the next can be o or u. If the first is u the second can be o or u. This gives four possibilities. Here the first child is the letter noted first and the second is the one listed second:
OO
OU
UO
UU

There are 4 outcomes and if each is equally likely then the probability of each is 1/4. Thus the probability of UU is 1/4

The probability of one underweight and one over weight is 1/2 because in two of the outcomes listed above there is one O and one U (namely OU and UO). Since there are 4 outcomes the probability is 2/4 = 1/2

Solve.<br><br> 5x-2y&lt;10<br> I give Brainliest!
Anestetic [448]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

This is impossible to solve.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

For an equation or inequality to be solvable, there must be the same number of inequalities as variables. Here, there is an x and there is a y. This means that you need at least two inequalities to solve it.

You can, however, rearrange to get x or y on one side.

This can be done for x:

5x < 10 + 2y

x < 2 + 2/5y

Or it can be done for y:

5x < 10 + 2y

5x - 10 < 2y

2.5x - 5 < y

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

2120 milimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

to convert meters to milimeters, you need to multiply your value by 1000, so in this case 2.12x 1000= 2120

Hope this helps
