9x^2 and 5x are not like terms because 9x is being squared and 5x isn't.
Answer:
there are more magnets that longer than 2 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.
Please have a look at the attached photo.
My answer:
From the photo, we can see that:
Length of the magnet:
- 1 inch there is 1 magnet
inches there are 2 magnets- 2 inches there are 3 magnets
- 3 inches there are 4 magnets
there is 1 magnet- 4 inches there are 2 magnets
=> the total number of magnets that longer than 2 1/2 are: 4+1+2 = 7
=> the total number of magnets that shorter than 2 1/2 are: 1+2+3 = 6
Hence, there are more magnets that longer than 2 1/2
Hope it will find you well.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 4 times the first equation from the second:
(-7y +16x -80) -4(-9y +4x -20) = (0) -4(0)
29y = 0 . . . . . simplify
y = 0 . . . . . . . .divide by 29
4x -20 = 0 . . . . substitute 0 for y in the first equation
x -5 = 0 . . . . . .divide by 4
x = 5 . . . . . . . . add 5
The solution to this system is (x, y) = (5, 0).
- 2 because we obtain : - 2x - 2y = - 16 ;
We solve the system:
5x + 2y = 30
-2x - 2y = -16
_____________(+)
3x / = 14;
x = 14/3;
y = 8 - 14/3;
y = 24/3 -14/3;
y = 10/3;
The solution of the system is ( 14/3 ; 10/3 )
Answer:
The number of permutations of the group of letters given (J, K, L, M, N, O and P) is 7! = 7 . 6 . 5 . 4 . 3 . 2 . 1 = 5,040.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of permutations without repetition is the number of possible sequences that can occur if we take the letters one by one and is calculated with the factorial of the total number of letters in the group.
Before starting we have 7 possibilities, one for each letter. Once the first letter is chosen randomly, we will have 6 possibilities, after taking the third letter we will have 5 possibilities, and so on.
In total the total number of possibilities to obtain the 7 letters in a certain order are 7 by 6 by 5 by 4 by 3 by 2 by 1, sayed in other words factorial of 7 (7!). The result of the multiplication gives 5,040.
In short we can get the seven letters in 5,040 different sequences.
