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 single tree produces about 2.6 × 10² lb of oxygen each year. The Amazon rainforest has about 3.9 X 10^11 trees.
Ymorist [56]
(2.6\times10^2) \times (3.9\times10^{11}) = 1.014\times10^{14}

1.014\times10^{14} <---How much is produced by all the trees in a year. 
They want how much each day so divide by 365


\frac{1.014\times10^{14}}{365} = 2.77808\times10^{11}
2.77808\times10^{11} <---answer per day

WZ and XR are diameters of circle C. The diagram is not drawn to scale. What is the measure of ZWX?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Measure of arc ZWX is <u>230°.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

arc WX = 50°

Now

The diameter divide a circle into two equal parts

so

arc\ ZWX=arc\ ZRW+arc\ WX

Since WZ is diameter of the circle.

arc\ ZRW=180\°

substituting in above equation we get

arc\ ZWX=180\°+50\°=230\°

Hence Measure of arc ZWX is <u>230°.</u>

Which graph best represents the function f(x) = 2x^2 -2
astraxan [27]

Answer:

The u equation, a parabola

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a quadratic equation, since we have a variable 'x' raised to second power.

The vertex can be found using the formula x=-b/2a when the parabola is written as y=ax2 + bx +c.
