Are 5x and 5x^2 like terms? Explain your answerc​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Pavel [41]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

No.  5x and 5x² are not like terms.

When a variable is raised to two different powers, they can not be added together.

Another way to look at it is to note that:

5x + 5x² ≡ 5x(1 + x)

It is more obvious there that 1 and x are not like terms, thus neither are 5x and 5x², though they do have common factors.

A batch of snack mix made of dried fruit and nuts contain 744G of nuts the ratio of nuts to dried fruit by weight is 12 to 13 ho
Bezzdna [24]

In a bag of snack mix:

n = nuts       d = dried fruit

n = 744g        d = ???g

Ratio Nuts/Dried fruit = 12/13

This basically means that if the mix was divided in 25 parts, 12 parts would be nuts and 13 would be dried fruits

If 744 is 12 parts then 744/12 is 1 part

744/12 = 62

1 part = 62g

there are 13 parts of dried fruit

13 x 62 = 806

744g of nuts + 806g of dreid fruit = 1550g

Answer: A batch of snack mix weigh 1550g, or 1.55kg

hope it helps :)

The intercept can be found when all other variables are equated to zero.
x-intercept when y = 0 and z = 0: 8x + 6*0 + 3*0 = 24 gives x = 3
y-intercept when x = 0 and z = 0: 8*0 + 6y + 3*0 = 24 gives y = 4
z-intercept when x = 0 and y = 0: 8*0 + 6*0 + 3z = 24 gives z = 8

The intercepts are (3, 0, 0), (0, 4, 0), and (0, 0, 8).
