What is 4a - 5a?

79% Answer Correctly
-a2
20a2
-1a
-1
Solution

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.

4a - 5a = -1a

3

What is 4a + 5a?

81% Answer Correctly
20a
20a2
9a
-a2
Solution

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.

4a + 5a = 9a

4

Solve for b:
-3b - 1 = -2 + 5b

59% Answer Correctly
6
-\(\frac{7}{9}\)
-8
\(\frac{1}{8}\)
Solution

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.

-3b - 1 = -2 + 5b
-3b = -2 + 5b + 1
-3b - 5b = -2 + 1
-8b = -1
b = \( \frac{-1}{-8} \)
b = \(\frac{1}{8}\)

If side x = 12cm, side y = 13cm, and side z = 13cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
27cm
38cm
37cm
31cm
Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 12cm + 13cm + 13cm = 38cm
