Hey there!

4x + 1/2 + 2x - 3

COMBINE the LIKE TERMS

= (4x + 2x) + (1/2 - 3)

TRYING to SIMPLIFY THEM

4x + 2x

= 6x

1/2 - 3

= -5/2

ANSWER

6x + (-5/2)

Therefore, your answer should be: 6x + -5/2

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Select all the expressions equivalent to: (4^5)⋅4^3 Group of answer choice 2^14 4^12 2^16 16^8 4^8 16^4

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Choices given as $2^{16}, 4^8$ and $16^4$ are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is,

$(4^5)(4^3)$

By applying law of exponents in the given expression,

$(4^5)(4^3)=4^{5+3}$

$=4^8$

$(4^5)(4^3)=(2^2)^5(2^2)^3$

$=(2^{2\times 5})(2^{2\times 3})$

$=2^{10}\times 2^6$

$=2^{16}$

$=(2^4)^4$

$=(16)^4$

Therefore, choices given as $2^{16}, 4^8$ and $16^4$ are correct.

Answer:

2. B

3. B

4. 2(7k+5h)

5. $325

Step-by-step explanation:

2) "X decreased by the sum of 2x + 5" Decreased means to be lowered, so that means this problem has subtraction in it. It also says x is being decreased BY the sum of 2x + 5 so that means 2x + 5 needs to be solved, which calls for parentheses. B best fits the description.

3) It is B because if you distribute the 8 to 2a and 3b, you'll get 16a and 24b, which is the given expression.

4) The given expression is 10h + 14k and in the equivalent expression, you are given 5h. To get from 10 to 5, you must divide by 2. This tells you that 2 is being distributed, so you put 2 before the parentheses. Since you divided 10 by 2, you want to do the same to 14, which is 7. Therefore, it is 2(7k+5h).

5) You are given the hourly charge, which is $25. This means that they charge $25 per hour/for every hour. You want to find the cost for 13 hours, so you multiply the hourly charge by 13 hours. 25 x 13 = 325.
