TRUE OR FALSE
Like terms AND unlike terms can be added or subtracted
FALSE - only like terms can be added or subtracted
TRUE OR FALSE: you can only multiply like terms?
FALSE - you can multiply any terms
TRUE OR FALSE - you can't divide like terms
FALSE - you can divide any terms even if they are not alike.
TRUE OR FALSE
a(b+c) = ac + ab
TRUE - it's just in a different order!!!
if a = 4, then 3a = ?
3a = 3x4 = 12
Which three of the following are like terms:
11y, 4x, 6xy, -9x, 10x2, 15xyz, 3xy2, 0.5x
4x, -9x, 0.5x
Simplify: 3m x 5
15m
(9b)/(3b)
TRUE OR FALSE:
5m (4m + 3) = 20m+15
FALSE:
5m(4m+3) = 20m2+15m
if b= -5 then,
-b = ??
positive 5
[-(-5) = +5]
Simplify by collecting like terms
-9p - 10p +13p - 14p
-20x
Simplify:
8f x 2g x g
= 16fg2
(16xy)/(8x)
= 2y
6(p-6) = ???
6p - 36
if g = 6 and h = 9, then
2g + 4h -2 = ???
12 + 36 - 2 = 46
Simplify by collecting the like terms:
16xy - 11yx +13x - 2x
= 5xy + 11x
Simplify:
4kp x 5p2 x ek
(20*2w^2y * xyz)/(4w)
=10wxyz
-jp(3j+10p)
= ???
-3j^2p-10jp^2
if a = 5, and b = -2, and c =1, then:
-3a + 2b2 - 4c = ???
-3x5 + 2(-2)2 - 4x1
= -15 + 2x4 - 4
= -15 + 8 - 4
= -7 -4
= -11
Simplify by expanding and then collecting the like terms:
5(h + 2p) - 5p + h
= 5h +10p -5p +h
=6h +5p
Simplify
4a x 2bc x 5 x a x b3 x -10c
= -400a2b4c2
(10d^3ef^3 * -9de^2)/(2d^3e^2)
-45def^3
2t(5t^2 - 3)+6t(1-t^2)
=10t^3 - 6t +6t - 6t^3
=4t^3
If x=2 and y= -1, solve:
(2+5xy)/(3x^2)
= (2+5*2*(-1))/(3*2^2)
=-8/12
=-2/3
