wat is 97x-14y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What do you mean exactly? As in x= and y=?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

97 x - 14 y

OpenStudy (triciaal):

these are unlike terms so cannot do anything to it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's how they gave it 2 me

OpenStudy (triciaal):

can you post all of the question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, openstudy was glitching on me on the answer-box. 97x-14y=0 (I'll assume) 97x=14y (97/14)x=y Do you know what to do from here? Do you understand this?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

can not help you if you don't have all of the question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it says to find the sum of 97x-14y

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

state that there is no sum; because they are unlike terms, you could not possibly solve them.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

it is an expression

OpenStudy (triciaal):

the sum is 97 x -14 y

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

did they gave you the values of x and y maybe?

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

cannot be simplified , other way we have to add cabbage with carrot to get what we don't even know.

OpenStudy (triciaal):

@AlexandervonHumboldt2 cabbage and carrot = cabbage and carrot

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

lol

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

but cabbage + carrot=? same here.

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

same lol

OpenStudy (triciaal):

@dirty-d do you understand you cannot combine/add terms if they are not like terms? so the sum of x and y is just x and y you might want to close this now

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[97\times-14y\\=(97\times-14)y\\ =-1358y\]
