That's not correct. The terms 2a and 3b are not like terms, so we cannot combine them to get 5ab. We simply leave it as 2a+3b.
If you had 2a+3a, then it would simplify to 5a
Similarly, 2b+3b = 5b
Or you could have 2ab+3ab = 5ab
The key is that the variable portions must match up to be able to add them.
Answer:
So we first open multiply the parenthesis by 9. 9x+5 is what it is. Now we need to simply it even more with the 2 parenthesis
(9x+5)(x+1) = 9x^2+9x+5x+5 = 9x^2+14x+5
<h2><u>
Answer: 9x^2+14x+5</u></h2>
Answer:
arcLP = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following
arcLM = 8x-56
arcNP = 5x+22
Required
arcLP
Given that arcLM = arcNP
8x-56 = 5x+22
8x - 5x = 22 + 56
3x = 78
x = 78/3
x = 26
Let assume arcLP = x - 7
arcLP = 26 -7
arcLP = 19
18 / 44 = 9 / 22
There are 44 nuts in the bag, and 18 of them are peanuts. If you simplify the fraction, you get 9/22 chance of getting a peanut.
