Answer: 240 gumdrops
Step-by-step explanation:
1 house: 15 gumdrops
16 houses : 240 gumdrops
1 x 16 = 16
15 x 16 = 240
Answer:
x=-4, y=2. (-4, 2).
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+6y=-8
-2x+8y=24
-----------------
2(5x+6y)=2(-8)
5(-2x+8y)=5(24)
-----------------------
10x+12y=-16
-10x+40y=120
---------------------
52y=104
y=104/52
y=2
5x+6(2)=-8
5x+12=-8
5x=-8-12
5x=-20
x=-20/5
x=-4
Like terms are terms that have the same variable no matter the coefficient value such as a negative or positive coefficient (number right to left of the variable aka the letter representing an unknown amount of value).
A. 8n : - 4n becuase the have the same variable (N)
B. - 2d: D because they have the same variable and even if d has no coefficient, it still has value, variables with no coefficient always equal 1 no matter the circumstances
C. - b: 17b and -3b2 because they both have the same variable eliminating the coefficients being two different types of numbers (positive and negative). The expressions have to have the same variable.
D: 4y², -3y2,4y, and 4 to the second power. This is because they all have the same variable.
E. 6x2y: 3xy because the variable are specifially xy and they must be in order to be like terms.
abc: all because they have all the letters but are just in different orders of variables. (thats all)
