‘Like terms’ means things with the same letters.

Your question is: 14x - 14y + 7 - x + z + 2x

As 14x, -x and 2x all have the same letter; they are like terms.

The answer would be 3, as there are only 3 like terms in your question.

I hope this made sense, if you need any more help or need me to explain further just ask! :)

H + 86.43 = 531.79<br><br> h = ___________

dedylja [7]

H= 445.36
because you bring the 86.43 over to the 531.79. which would make 86.43 a negative number. so you subtract 531.79 by 86.43

Base of triangle exceeds the height by 4. If the area is 178.5 square inches, find the length of the base and the height of the

xxMikexx [17]

Area of a triangle:
A= (1/2)(bh)

In this problem we are given:
A= 178.5 $in^{2}$
b= h+4 in
h= UNKNOWN ("h")

Plug in our values into the area equation and solve for "h":
$A= \frac{1}{2} bh$
$178.5 = \frac{1}{2} ((h+4)h)$ (multiply each side by 2 to get rid of the 1/2)
$357 = ((h+4)h)$
$357 = h^{2} +4h$
$0= h^{2} +4h -357$
(357/21=17)
$0= (h+21)(h-17)$ (solve both inequalities separately)

$0= (h+21)$
$-21= h$ ( a negative height is not possible so, this answer is incorrect.)

$0=(h-17)$
$h=17 in$

Answer: base = (h+4)= (17+ 4) b= 21 in h= 17in
