Answer:
Like terms are terms whose variables are the same.
We can only add them because if they does not have the same variable you do not actually know if the variables are equivalent and you will get the wrong answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ex: 4z,7z,108z,45z
Ex: 4w-2h+7a-2w
You can not add 4w and 7a because you do not know what the variables equal so you do not know the true number so add or subtract by.
Convert the mixed number 2 1/4 into an improper fraction: 9/4.
Then multiply this 9/4 by 3: 27/4, or 6 3/4.
Answer:
Jonas = 60 pounds
Jane = 70 pounds
Remember- 5 or more, raise the score. 4 or less, let it rest.
Jonas is 63 pounds. 3 is less than 4, so rounded to the nearest ten would be 60 pounds.
Meanwhile, Jane is 67 pounds. 7 is more than 5, so we will raise the score.
So, 67 rounded to the nearest ten would be 70.
You have your answers. 60 and 70. Hope this helps!
