Answer:
You got your negatives messed up. The answer was -5y-4x
Step-by-step explanation:
Expression: -8y + 5x + 3y -9x
Your objective: Simplify the expression
The First step, Combine like terms meaning -8y+3y and -9x+5x
Solve, -8y+3y
That would equal -5y
Next solve -9x + 5x
That would equal -4x
Write your expression in simplest form:
-5y-4x
What you did:
You combined like terms but didn't follow the negative rules
Remember: Positive and Negative = Negative
Negative and Negative = Positive
For example -8y + 3y
You chose to add -8 and 3 which you got -11
What you were supposed to do was to subtract.
A helpful trick: Since they are like terms you could rearrange the questions like this 3y-8y+5x-9x, You can see that you have to do subtraction left to right
3y-8y= -5y
5x-9x= -4x
Solution: -5x-4x
Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
V = 6x + b
1/2 V -3 x = -3
V - 6x = -6
V - 6x = b
Deck=456
area of pool=legnth times width=20 times 50=1000
the area of the deck is made up of 4 rectangles and 4 squares, the rectangles' areas come in pairs
areas are
area of deck= 2(20w)+4(w^2)+2(50w)d
456=2(20w)+4(w^2)+2(50w)
distribute
456=40w+4w^2+100w
add like terms
456=4w^2+140w
divide everybody by 4
114=w^2+35w
subtract 114 from both sides
0=w^2+35w-114
find what 2 numbers multiply to get 114 and add to get 35 and factor
-3 and 38
0=(w-3)(w+38)
set each to zero
w-3=0
w=3
w+38=0
w=-38
false since measures in real life cannot be negative
therfor width of walkway=3ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In any right triangle, the sine of an angle is equal to the angle's opposite side divided by the hypotenuse.
Therefore, we have the following equation:
