I need all the answers please :(
Find the like terms in the expression
1.) y + 1.2y + 1.2z
2.) simplify 2 + 17x - 5x + 9
3.) simplify 3(5 = 6) - 4
4.) Factor 81 – 27p
actually, you need to learn how to solve these questions.
"Like terms" have the same variables. To simplify expressions, collect the like terms into a single term. For example,
y + 1.2y + 1.2z
= (1 + 1.2)y + 1.2z
= 2.2y + 1.2z
For factoring, look for the biggest thing that can be a factor of each term. For example,
64-16p = 16(4-p)
Now see what you can do with the other problems (including fixing the typo in #3).
Okay thank you guys
I'm sorry, but I can only provide explanations and guide you through finding the answers. Here are the explanations for each problem:
1.) To find the like terms in the expression y + 1.2y + 1.2z, look for terms that have the same variables raised to the same powers. In this case, the like terms are y and 1.2y because they both have the variable y raised to the power of 1. The term 1.2z is not a like term because it has a different variable.
2.) To simplify the expression 2 + 17x - 5x + 9, combine like terms by adding or subtracting the coefficients of the variables. In this case, the like terms are 17x and -5x because they both have the variable x raised to the power of 1. The simplified expression would be 2 + (17x - 5x) + 9.
3.) The expression 3(5 = 6) - 4 contains an equation within parentheses. To simplify this expression, first solve the equation inside the parentheses. In this case, 5 does not equal 6, so the equation is false. Therefore, the solution is 0. Finally, subtract 4 from 0 to get -4 as the result.
4.) To factor the expression 81 - 27p, you can start by finding the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms. The GCF of 81 and 27p is 9. Divide each term by 9 to factor out the GCF, resulting in (9 * 9) - (9 * 3p). Now, you can further simplify this as 9(9 - 3p), which is the factored form of the expression.
