Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Since all 5 terms are like terms they can all be combined into 1 term. For example, 3x + 8x + 5x + 4x + 19x = ?. Since they all have the term x they can be combined into 39x. That leaves 1 term.
Answer:
Not necessarily. There are many ways to write a basic equation with a negative answer. For example, -3-4 = -7. Here 4 is a positive number but because you subtract 4 to 3 or take away 4 from 3 being a negative number and so you get a negative answer. Another example is 6+(-9). There are a couple of ways you can resolve this. My method is to subtract 9 from 6 which gives you 3 and simply add a negative sign.
Let me know if you'd like more examples. Hope this helps!! Sorry if it is confusing I can explain you in a more simpler way if you'd like.

Answer:
Using 5.25 cups of flour would make 3 batches of cookies. He made 180 cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
To see how many batches you make all you do is take the 5.25 and divide it by 1.75 because thats how much it takes to make 1. When you divide it you get 3. If there are 5 dozen in each batch thats 60 cookies because 1 dozen is 12. Then,since he made 3 batches you multiply the 60 by 3 and you get 180.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
{36, 38, 40, 42, 44}
Step-by-step explanation:
You are implying that you are adding up 5 consecutive numbers, and should use the word "add" or the word "sum."
"The sum of 5 consecutive odd numbers is 200" leads to:
x + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) + (x+8) = 200. Note how each number is 2 more than the number preceding it. In this way you can guarantee that all of the 5 numbers are odd.
Summing up, we get 5x + 20 = 200, or 5x = 180.
Dividing both sides by 5, we get x = 36.
Then the 5 consecutive integers are
{36, 38, 40, 42, 44}. These add up to 200.
Unfortunately, these are consecutive EVEN numbers, not odd numbers.
