Answer:

  yes

Step-by-step explanation:

3x and -3x are like terms. When they are added, the result is zero.

  3x -3x = 0

This fact is used extensively in the solution of equations.

<u><em>Example</em></u>

  2x +3 = 3x

To solve this, we can add the term -2x to both sides of the equation. Then collecting terms gives 0 for the sum of x-terms on the left side. (That is why we chose -2x.)

  2x -2x +3 = 3x -2x . . . . . add -2x to both sides

  3 = x . . . . . . . collect terms

Answer:

it is NOT possible to collect like tems and end up with zero

Step-by-step explanation:

When combining like terms, such as 2x and 3x, we add their coefficients.

For example, 2x + 3x = (2+3)x = 5x.

Answer:

The answer, also the only answer, is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

A: 20 is 1/2 of 40, so you would arrive at Seneca Falls in half an hour.

B: Same as a, 2 is 1/2 of 4, so you would also arrive to school in half an hour.

C: 60 is double 30, so it would take two hours to get from Albany to New York City.

A truck with a 22 gallon tank gets an average gas mileage of 14. what is the equation that describes the distance the truck can
Vlada [557]
Consumption per 14 Mile/gallon. OR 14 MPG

Distance is = Number of gallons in the tank x MPG
Let y = distance and x = the number of gallons, then:

y= x.(MPG). (MPG is a constant)

Apply it to the given data: MPG = 14 and x = 22 gallons,
 y= 22.(14) = 308 miles

Yoo I don't understand this pls help :))<br><br>geometry ​
Luden [163]

Answer:

At the bottom of the text.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is isosceles. The measure of the two internal angles J and K are equal; The misure of the external K angle (2) is half a circle minus the internal K (1). The internal angle in R is calculated by difference between 180 and twice the internal K angle (1).

1. 72° as well.

2. 180-70-70 = 40°

3. m\angle2 = 110 \rightarrow m\angle1 =70, Same as #2: 40°

4. x+2x+2x = 180 \rightarrow 5x=180 \righarrow x= 36

5. x +(x+30)+(x+30) = 180 \rightarrow 3x +60 = 180 \rightarrow 3x= 120 \rightarrow x=40
