HELP ME AND GET MEDAL+FAN To make a headband, Mrs. Jones needs 7 yards of ribbon. How many yards of ribbon does Mrs. Jones need to make twenty headbands? Let h represent the number of headbands. The algebraic expression for this is seven h. fourteen ninety one hundred forty seven hundred twenty

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is 140 divided by 7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's 20, theres your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thxs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but theres no 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@quickstudent can u help me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no its 140

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

fail

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lets make an equation. 7x=140. divide by 7 on both sides. x=20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is 140

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

See, Mrs. Jones wanted to make twenty headbands. It takes 7 ribbons to make one headband, so you would need to multiply that by twenty, and that equals 140.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help me with more

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

Yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Look at the expression below. 2 + 4xy + 8x + 10 – 3x + 5y a. Rewrite the expression so that LIKE TERMS are grouped together. b. Simplify the expression

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

Like terms are the terms that have the same variable and exponent. 2 and +10 are like terms, +8x and -3x are like terms.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Simplify by combining LIKE TERMS. five m plus two n plus n five m plus three n seven m n five m plus two n ten m n

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12+4xy+5x+5y

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

So, when you combine the terms it would look like this: 2 + 10 + 4xy + 8x - 3x + 5y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thxs

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

Now simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which i already typed...my bad

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12+4xy+5x+5y

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

@emanlol , Do you know how to simplify?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4xy, 5x and 5y cannot be combined. the equation is done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i don't got a calculator with me

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

You can't do it with a calculator, because you can't type in variables on it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yeah lol

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

You can do the simplifying, though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not good with simplifying

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

All you have to do is simplify, correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If so, I already said the simplified answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5x + y(4x + 5) + 12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or 12 + 5x + y(4x + 5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12+4xy+5x+5y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4xy cannot be simplified at this time.
