Like terms would be taking all of the ones with a and getting them alone, all of the ones with b alone, and all plain numbers alone to simplify
1) 2a+3-5a+8b
****= -3a+8b+3****
take 2a-5a and that is your answer
2) 6a+rs-4a+6rs
=2a+rs+6rs
combine the a's 6a-4a
****=2a+7rs****
1rs+6rs combine rs's and that's it :)
**** is the answers
9m is is the closest length of each side of the garden
Answer:
number one. 186
number two. 36
Step-by-step explanation:
FOR NUMBER ONE:
the area of a trapezoid formula is 
where a and b are the bases and h is the height. so we have to add in the numbers into the formula
= <em>81</em>
and the paralellogram formula is b×h. where b is the base and h is height
15 × 7 = <em>105</em>
so the area of the figure is 81 + 105 is 186 in^2
FOR NUMBER TWO:
the area of the square formula is 
. where s is the side
4^2 = <em>16</em>
and for the paralellogram is b × h
4 × 5 = <em>20</em>
so the area of the figure is 16 +20 = 36 in^2
hope this helps! ;)
First simplify the equation and next multiply the 20 with the x^2 and find a number that adds together to give you the middle
Answer:
X < 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 1 to both sides
3 > x/3
multiply by 3 to get x by itself
9 > x
or
x < 9
