This property states taht the order of addition or multiplication does not mater. For example, 2 + 5 and 5 + 2 are equivalent.
commutative
The commutative property states that, when adding or multiplying numbers, the order in which they're added or multiplied does not matter. For example, 3 + 4 and 4 + 3 give the same result, as do 3 x 4 and 4 x 3.
Solve for c:
-6c + 9 = -7 + 7c
To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.
-6c + 9 = -7 + 7c
-6c = -7 + 7c - 9
-6c - 7c = -7 - 9
-13c = -16
c = \( \frac{-16}{-13} \)
c = 1\(\frac{3}{13}\)
What part of the brain is responsible for for balance, movement, and muscle coordination?
cerebellum
The cerebellum is a large cluster of nerves at the base of the brain that's responsible for balance, movement, and muscle coordination.
What is 7a3 + 7a3?
To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.
7a3 + 7a3 = 14a3
The __________ nervous system regulates involuntary activity in the heart, stomach, and intestines.
autonomic
Part of the peripheral nervous system, the autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary activity in the heart, stomach, and intestines.
Capacitors connected in series produce __________ capacitance compared to capacitors connected in parallel.
less
Capacitors store electricity and are used in circuits as temporary batteries. Capacitors are charged by DC current (AC current passes through a capacitor) and that stored charge can later be dissipated into the circuit as needed. Capacitors connected in series produce less capacitance than capacitors connected in parallel.
These tools are called:
chisels
Wood chisels are used to shape or smooth wood surfaces. They come in a variety of widths and can be used with hand power or tapped with a mallet when deeper cuts need to be made.
If A = 10 ft., B = 1 ft., C = 9 ft., the green box weighs 50 lbs. and the blue box weighs 60 lbs., what does the orange box have to weigh for this lever to balance?
fAdA = fBdB + fCdC
For this problem, this equation becomes:
50 lbs. x 10 ft. = 60 lbs. x 1 ft. + fC x 9 ft.
500 ft. lbs. = 60 ft. lbs. + fC x 9 ft.
fC = \( \frac{500 ft. lbs. - 60 ft. lbs.}{9 ft.} \) = \( \frac{440 ft. lbs.}{9 ft.} \) = 48.89 lbs.
When the clouds become too saturated with water, the water is released as precipitation in the form of:
snow
Rising into the atmosphere, the water condenses into clouds. When the clouds become too saturated with water, the water is released as snow or ice precipitation which may warm as it falls to reach Earth as rain.
