Since a polynomial is where we have like terms such as (1 x 10²) and (4 x 10²), we can add these up using the distributive property to get (5 x 10²) but still keep the 10². For example, it's similar to if we had 2x²+3x²=5x². The x² is still there, but we add up the 2 and 3. Similarly, we can add these up for 10^1 and 10^0
please give a more detailed question and i will be happy to try and help with your question
The first picture about the rational numbers I am not sure the answer.
In the second picture the set that are all equivalent to the fraction is the second set.
In the third picture
the equivalent expression is the first one.
In the fourth picture the correct situation is the first one about buying popcorn.
Hope this helps a little, sorry I could not help more.
I'm going to use the substitution method.
4x + 4y = -16
-8x - 6y = -20
4x + 4y = -16
- 4x - 4x
--------------------------
4y = -4x - 16
------ ------ ------
4 4 4
y = -x - 4
-8x - 6(-x - 4) = -20
-8x + 6x + 24 = -20
-2x + 24 = -20
- 24 - 24
----------------------------
-2x = 44
------- -------
2 2
x = 22
4(22) + 4y = -16
88 + 4y = -16
- 88 - 88
------------------------
4y = -104
------ ---------
4 4
y = -26
The answer is (22, -26).
