<span>In an algebraic expression, terms are the elements separated by the plus or minus signs. This example has four terms, <span>3x2</span>, 2y, 7xy, and 5. Terms may consist of variables and coefficients, or constants.</span>
<span>Variables
In algebraic expressions, letters represent variables. These letters are actually numbers in disguise. In this expression, the variables are x and y. We call these letters "variables" because the numbers they represent can vary—that is, we can substitute one or more numbers for the letters in the expression.</span>
<span>Coefficients
Coefficients are the number part of the terms with variables. In <span>3x2 + 2y + 7xy + 5</span>, the coefficient of the first term is 3. The coefficient of the second term is 2, and the coefficient of the third term is 7.</span>
If a term consists of only variables, its coefficient is 1.
<span>Constants
Constants are the terms in the algebraic expression that contain only numbers. That is, they're the terms without variables. We call them constants because their value never changes, since there are no variables in the term that can change its value. In the expression <span>7x2 + 3xy</span> + 8 the constant term is "8."</span>
<span>Real Numbers
In algebra, we work with the set of real numbers, which we can model using a number line.</span>
Answer:
The answer is 66.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the mean, you add all the numbers together, then you divide by the # of numbers their are. So you add 34,56,78,98, and then you divide by 4.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
11L - 42 = 4L
7L = 42
L = 6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to make a specific shade of green paint, a painter mixes 1 1/2 quarts of blue paint. Converting 1.5 quarts to cup,
1 quart = 4 cups
1.5 quarts = 1.5 × 4 = 6 cups
She also used 1/2 gallon of white paint. Converting 0.5 gallons to cup,
0.0625 gallons = 1 cup
0.5 gallons = 0.5/0.0625 = 8 cups
This means that the ratio of cups of blue paint to green paint to white paint is 6: 2 :8
Total ratio = 6 +2 + 8 = 16
To make 100 cups of this shade of green,
Cups of blue paint needed = 6/16 × 100 = 37.5 cups
Cups of green paint needed = 2/16 × 100 = 12.5 cups
Cups of white paint needed = 8/16 × 100 = 50 cups
V=LWH
h=10
V=360
360=LW10
divide both sides by 10
36=LW
try some values
ok so if we get L=1 and W=36, that is the same box as L=36 and W=1
so
L,W
36,1
18,2
12,3
9,4
6,6
5 of them
answer is 5 different boxes
dunno what the 'compare volume' is
