this is not the answer i was looking for
Hi, so I know the answer to this problem (now that I got it wrong) but I'm not quite sure why I was wrong, help?
Answer:
[tex]-2x^2-x[/tex]. Your answer was wrong because "x-squared" terms didn't cancel.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, set up an equation. We know something is supposed to be added to the expression [tex]2x^2+2x[/tex], and the result should be x. So:
[tex]2x^2+2x+(\text{ ? })=x[/tex]
We want to solve for the question mark... the unknown thing that we're adding to the original expression, in order to get x.
It is uncommon to put question marks in equations to represent quantities. Usually we use a letter. Since x is already being used in the equation, we should pick something else ... we could use "y".
[tex]2x^2+2x+(\text{ } y \text{ })=x[/tex]
...or just...
[tex]2x^2+2x+y=x[/tex]
Algebra allows us to solve the equation and find out what "y" is equivalent to.
To solve, we want to get the "y" by itself. To do so, we try to eliminate the other "terms" from the left side of the equation.
Understanding "terms" & "like terms"
Terms
"Terms" in an equation are either a number multiplied to other things, or just a single number that isn't multiplied to anything else.
For example, the various terms in our equation above are
[tex]2x^2[/tex], [tex]2x[/tex], [tex]y[/tex], [tex]x[/tex]
You might ask why the last things, which don't have a number, are considered terms.
Remember that multiplying by 1 doesn't change anything, so we could imagine each of the last two terms as being 1 times the letter.
So, we can rewrite our equation:
[tex]2x^2+2x+1y=1x[/tex]
Like terms
"Like terms" are terms where the "other stuff the numbers are multiplied to" is the same, so for instance, the [tex]2x[/tex] and the [tex]1x[/tex] are like terms. They are like terms because, the "other stuff" that the numbers are multiplied to are "x" for both terms. Note that [tex]2x[/tex] and [tex]2x^2[/tex] are not "like terms" because the "stuff" is different:
[tex]x[/tex] is different than [tex]x^2[/tex]
"Like terms" are important because only like terms can be "combined" into a single simplified term.
Solving equations
To solve an equation, we isolate what we're solving for, y, by disconnecting the other terms from it, and simplify.
Starting with subtracting 2x from both sides of the equation:
[tex]2x^2+2x+1y=1x\\(2x^2+2x+1y)-2x=(1x)-2x[/tex]
Subtraction is the same as "adding a negative":
[tex]2x^2+2x+1y+(-2x)=1x+(-2x)[/tex]
Since all terms are now connected by addition, we can add in any order we want (because of the Commutative Property of Addition), and we can combine like terms.
Thinking just about the number parts, since [tex]1+(-2)=-1[/tex], then [tex]1x+(-2x)=-1x[/tex].
Returning to our main equation, the right side simplifies:
[tex]2x^2+2x+1y+(-2x)=1x+(-2x)\\2x^2+2x+1y+(-2x)=-1x[/tex]
On the left side: [tex]2x[/tex] and [tex]-2x[/tex] are like terms.
Fact: [tex]2+(-2)=0[/tex]
So, [tex]2x+(-2x)=0x[/tex]
Since anything times zero is just zero, [tex]0x=0[/tex]. Furthermore, adding zero to anything doesn't change it. So when the [tex]2x[/tex] and [tex]-2x[/tex] terms on the left side of our main equation are combined, they "disappear" (While we talked through are a lot of rules/steps to justify why that works, it is common to omit those justifications, and to just combine those like terms and make them disappear.)
So, [tex]2x^2+2x+1y+(-2x)=-1x[/tex] simplifies to:
[tex]2x^2+1y=-1x[/tex]
Similarly for the [tex]2x^2[/tex] term, we subtract from both sides:
[tex]2x^2+1y=-1x\\(2x^2+1y)-2x^2=(-1x)-2x^2\\2x^2+1y+(-2x^2)=-1x+(-2x^2)[/tex]
Combining like terms on the left, they disappear.
[tex]1y=-1x+(-2x^2)[/tex]
There are no like terms on the right.
Since the two terms on the right are added together, we can use the commutative property of addition to rearrange:
[tex]1y=-2x^2+(-1x)[/tex]
Addition of a negative can turn back into subtraction, and simplify multiplication by 1.
[tex]y=-2x^2-x[/tex]
Remembering we chose "y" as the unknown thing we wanted to know, that's why the "correct answer" is what it is.
Verifying an answer
Verifying can double check an answer, and helps explain why the answer you chose doesn't work.
To verify an answer, the original statement said add something to the expression and get a result of "x". So, let's see if the "correct answer" does:
[tex]2x^2+2x+(\text{ } ? \text{ })\\2x^2+2x+(-2x^2-x)\\2x^2+2x+(-2x^2-1x)\\2x^2+2x+(-2x^2)+(-1x)[/tex]
Combining the "x-squared" terms, completely cancels...
[tex]2x+(-1x)[/tex]
Combining the "x" terms, and simplifying...
[tex]1x\\x[/tex]
So it works.
Why isn't the answer what you chose:
[tex]2x^2+2x+(\text{ } ? \text{ })\\2x^2+2x+(-x^2-x)\\2x^2+2x+(-1x^2-1x)\\2x^2+2x+(-1x^2)+(-1x)[/tex]
Combining the x-squared terms, things don't completely cancel...
[tex]1x^2+2x+(-1x)[/tex]
Combining the x terms...
[tex]1x^2+1x\\x^2+x[/tex]
So adding the answer that you chose to the expression would not give a result of "x", which is why it is "wrong"
Please help i dont get this at all so please i will highly appreciate it .Thank youuu!!!
Answer:
(b) 3 terms, degree 10
Step-by-step explanation:
When simplifying polynomials, the first thing you look at is the exponents of the variables in each term. (The terms are separated by + or - signs.) Only terms with the same set of exponents can be combined.
When considering the degree of the polynomial, you look at the sum of exponents of the variables in each term. That sum is the degree of the term. The degree of the polynomial is the highest of the degrees of the terms.
__
exponents and degreeThe four terms have variables s and t. If we write the exponents of those variables as an ordered pair, we will have one ordered pair for each term:
5s⁶t² ⇒ (exponent of s, exponent of t) ⇒ (6, 2); degree = 6+2 = 8
6st⁹ ⇒ (1, 9); degree = 1+9 = 10
-8s⁶t² ⇒ (6, 2); degree 6+2 = 8 (this is a like term to the first term)
-6t⁷ ⇒ (0, 7); degree 0+7 = 7
The degrees are 8, 10, 8, 7, so the highest degree is 10. This is the degree of the polynomial.
__
combining termsWe can only combine the terms containing s⁶t². Doing that gives ...
(5 -8)s⁶t² +6st⁹ -6t⁷ = -3s⁶t² +6st⁹ -6t⁷ . . . . . three terms
In "standard form", the terms are written in order of decreasing degree:
6st⁹ -3s⁶t² -6t⁷ . . . . . . 3 terms, degree 10

f(0) = -2
b. f(2) = 7(2)^2 + 3(2) - 2

f(2) = 28 + 4
f(2) = 32

f(-2) = 7(4) - 6 - 2
f(-2) = 28 - 8

for the last ones it's essentially the same thing except the value a is not known
d. f(a+1) = 7(a+1)^2 + 3(a+1) - 2
f(a+1) = 7(a^2 + 2a + 1) + 3a + 3 - 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Factorization:Take 'y' from each term.

Now factorize x⁴ - 4x² - 5.
Sum = -4
Product = -5
Factors = -5 , 1
When we add (-5) + 1, it gives (-4) and when we multiply (-5)*1, gives (-5).
x⁴ - 4x² - 5 = x⁴ + x² - 5x² - 5
= x²(x² + 1) -5(x² + 1)

Answer:
The slope is [tex]-\frac{1}{5}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Choose 2 points on the graph.
(7,3) and (2,2)
Use slope formula: [tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2-3}{2-7}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{-1}{-5}[/tex]
The slope is [tex]-\frac{1}{5}[/tex].
Answer:
[tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] or [tex]0.2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope refers to the gradient of the line.
There is a formula to find the gradient of a line where m is the gradient:
[tex]m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1}}[/tex]
So, we will take two points on the line.
Let's take our first point as (-3, 1) and our second as (7, 3).
Let's work with the [tex]y[/tex] values.
The first [tex]y[/tex] value is 1 and the second [tex]y[/tex] value is 3.
So, in the numerator, they would look like [tex]3 - 1[/tex].
Let's work with the [tex]x[/tex] values.
The first [tex]x[/tex] value is -3 and the second [tex]x[/tex] value is 7.
So, in the denominator, this would look like [tex]7--3[/tex].
Let's use these in the fraction and work out our answer:
[tex]m = \frac{3-1}{7--3} = \frac{2}{10} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2[/tex]
Therefore, our final answer is [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] or [tex]0.2[/tex].
