if x = 1, a + b = a+ b

#

but there is problem

#

if x = 1 is not the only solution

#

how can i solve?

high lily
#

you could do stuff like add the equations, then group terms

#

ax + b = 0
bx + a = 0
adding equations
ax + a + bx + b = 0
grouping by same coefficient
a(x+1) + b(x+1) = 0
factoring out the (x+1)
(x+1)(a+b) = 0

timid silo
#

oh

high lily
#

same approach is still applicable when there are more terms

timid silo
#

wow

#

can you show me with ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d

#

pls

#

you are genius

high lily
#

try following the steps i layed out
ax^3 + bx^2 + cx +d = 0
dx^3 + cx^2 + bx + a = 0

#

add those equations

timid silo
#

it's much harder

#

😢

high lily
#

not that much different

#

instead of adding 2 terms with 2 terms, its 4 terms with 4 terms

#

still just addition atm

timid silo
#

oh ok

#

thank you

opal pumice
#

this may be a silly question. i got this function. it is a parabole, so it had no asymptotes. right?

opal pumice
#

parabola*

static marten
#

it's not a parabola?

opal pumice
#

oh

static marten
#

parabolas are ax^2+bx+c only

opal pumice
#

oh....

static marten
#

but you're right, it has no vertical asymptotes

opal pumice
#

i have a hard time visualising what dividing one function by another means bruh

static marten
#

most of the time it's really not feasible to try imagining it

#

like you don't know what 1/(x^4+4) is

#

the best you can do is the asymptotes and intercepts

opal pumice
#

oh alright

#

thank you very much

untold garnet

untold garnet
#

how is e neither even or odd?

neon vector
#

How do we check whether a function is odd or even?

untold garnet
#

by replacing x with -x?

#

so it will be f(-x)=-2x^2+x

high lily
#

you didn't replace properly

#

f(-x) is incorrect

untold garnet
#

why

high lily
#

how are you getting the -2x^2

untold garnet
#

cause i replaced x with -x

high lily
#

how does replacing x with -x give you -2x^2

untold garnet
#

cause it negative?

high lily
#

show me how you're replacing/substituting

untold garnet
#

i just put the negative in the front

high lily
#

that's not how substitution works

untold garnet
#

oh

high lily
#

to be safe and avoid order of operation mishaps,
replace x with (-x**)** and simplify if needed

#

note that in 2x^2, x is being squared,
when substituting, whatever is replacing that x should also be squared

#

i.e.
$$f(-x) = 2(-x)^2 + x$$

warm shaleBOT
#

ℝam()n()v

untold garnet
#

ohh

#

ohhh and -x squared is x

#

so it remains 2x^2?

high lily
#

ohhh and -x squared is x
very poor wording/typo

#

(-x) squared is x^2

untold garnet
#

thats what i meant

high lily
#

-x squared is ambiguous

untold garnet
#

what does that mean

#

ok so what do i do after?

#

do i factor out the negative?

high lily
untold garnet
#

yes

high lily
#

it means that the meaning of that is unclear
as there are multiple ways to interpret that

#

e,g. - of x squared: -x^2
or the whole expression -x squared: (-x)^2

#

so ideally you shouldn't type stuff like that

untold garnet
#

ohh ok

#

so what do i do after

high lily
#

after getting
$$f(-x) = 2x^2 + x$$
refer back to the properties of odd/even functions

warm shaleBOT
#

ℝam()n()v

untold garnet
#

arent i suppose to factor out the negative?

high lily
#

wdym

untold garnet
#

like when its odd we factor out the negative

high lily
#

depends, on how you're trying to manipulate the equation/expressions

#

what's the relation between f(-x) and f(x) for odd functions

untold garnet
#

f(-x)=-f(x)

high lily
#

you have your f(-x),
what's -f(x)

untold garnet
#

2x^2+x?

high lily
#

no

#

how are you getting that

untold garnet
high lily
#

that's f(-x)

#

i'm asking for
$$-f(x)$$

warm shaleBOT
#

ℝam()n()v

untold garnet
#

-(2x^2-x)

high lily
#

simplify that

untold garnet
#

idk how to

high lily
#

distribute

untold garnet
#

2x^2 +x

high lily
#

no

#

$a(b-c) \redneq b - ac$

warm shaleBOT
#

ℝam()n()v

high lily
#

that's what it looks like you're doing

#

only distributing that - to the second term

untold garnet
#

idk how to

high lily
#

are you familar with the distributive property?

untold garnet
#

no

high lily
#

so you can't expand
a(b-c)?

untold garnet
#

ab-ac?

high lily
#

no

#

where did b go?

#

why are you saying something that's essentially 0

#

the edited answer is correct, yes
a(b-c) = ab - ac

#

is an application of the distributive property

#

apply the same idea to what you have

untold garnet
#

2x^2 +x

warm shaleBOT
#

ℝam()n()v

high lily
#

no

#

how are you getting 2x^2 + x

untold garnet
#

ykw

#

ill just ask my teacher tmr cause im not understanding rn sorry

high lily
#

you're just making a very small algebraic screw up

#

-1 * 2x^2 = ?

untold garnet
#

idk what to do

#

like idk what u want rn

high lily
#

$\underbrace{-1}{a}(\underbrace{2x^2}{b}-x)$

warm shaleBOT
#

ℝam()n()v

high lily
#

ab = -1 * 2x^2 = ?

#

don't overthink this

untold garnet
#

-2x^2?

high lily
#

yes

#

-1 * -x is x,
that part was alright

untold garnet
#

but thats gonna be 2x^2 anyway

high lily
#

no?

#

-2x^2 isn't the same as 2x^2

#

generally something isn't the same as its negative

#

5 isn't the same as -5

#

42 isn't the same as -42

untold garnet
high lily
#

well that's different to what you have here

#

in the substitution process x being replaced with (-x) gives
2(-x)^2 and that simplifies to 2x^2 (because -1 * -1 = 1)

#

here you have -2x^2

untold garnet
#

im still not understanding

#

how this related to it being neither even or odd

high lily
#

its related because you need to get the algebra right

#

but you're turning things into different things with no justification

#

-1 * 2x^2 = -2x^2

#

thus distributing
$$-f(x) = -(2x^2 - x) = -2x^2 + x$$

untold garnet
#

ok

warm shaleBOT
#

ℝam()n()v

high lily
#

and to check whether the function is odd,

#

check whether this expression is the same as f(-x)

#

i.e. is
$$-f(x) = -2x^2 + x$$
the same as
$$f(-x) = 2x^2 + x$$

warm shaleBOT
#

ℝam()n()v

untold garnet
#

its not

high lily
#

hence the function isn't odd

#

same idea for whether its even

#

check if f(x) is the same as f(-x)

untold garnet
#

its nto?

high lily
#

yeh, so the function isn't even

untold garnet
#

ok

#

thank u

faint verge
obtuse pebbleBOT
faint verge
#

well its continuous on [-2, 0)

#

and (0, 2)

#

and (2, 3]?

#

not sure

#

pls ping if u reply

unique nebula
faint verge
#

no

#

oh

#

there

unique nebula
#

Where would it not be differentiable

faint verge
#

and ik it cant be differentiable if its not continuous

#

so at x = 0, 2

#

?

unique nebula
#

Do you have any reasons

#

Because no point for me to spit answers you can't verify

faint verge
#

um

#

no i dont know why i just noticed that on all of these types of questions

#

differentiability depends on continuousity? A limit has to be continuous from both left and right sides or something idk

#

does that have to do with it

unique nebula
#

What is a derivative?

#

What is continuity?

faint verge
#

continuity means y exists for all x values within the interval without any stops or abrupt breaks

#

and a derivate is... idk how to word it

unique nebula
#

So you're not told any algebraic definition of continuity?

#

Just some magic words?

faint verge
#

um ik the 3 things a function needs to be to be continuous

#

f(a) is defined
lim x->a f(x) exists
lim x->a f(x) = f(a)

#

i think

unique nebula
#

Okay

#

So you're given the limits

#

A function is differentiable at point (a) if the limit
[\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{f(a+h)-f(a)}{h}]
exists

faint verge
#

oh ye ik

warm shaleBOT
#

Watson

unique nebula
#

So where is it non differentiable?

faint verge
#

um

#

so i have to calculate them at each point?

unique nebula
#

(-2,3) contains infinitely many points

#

So I'm sure there's a way to classify many sets of points easily

faint verge
#

thats gonna take a while

#

each whole number?

#

oh

#

wait

#

if it cant be differentiable if its not continuous

#

its not differentiable or continuous at x = 0, 2

unique nebula
#

So you are claiming it is differentiable at -1?

#

Find the derivative

faint verge
#

um ok

#

3?

unique nebula
#

You just guessing now?

faint verge
#

._.

unique nebula
#

What's the derivative at -1.5?

faint verge
#

is it wrong

unique nebula
#

Yes it is

unique nebula
faint verge
#

ok

#

oh

#

i forgot the negative

#

f'(-1.5) = -3
f'(-.5) = 3

unique nebula
#

ok

#

So the derivative from (-2, -1) is constant

#

And the derivative from (-1,0) is constant

#

What does that mean for the derivative at -1

faint verge
#

its constant?

unique nebula
#

At what

faint verge
#

x = -1

unique nebula
#

You telling me the change from -3 to 3 is smooth?

faint verge
#

oh

#

no

unique nebula
#

??????

faint verge
#

its not constant

unique nebula
#

So what is the derivative at x=-1?

faint verge
#

DNE?

unique nebula
#

Yes

#

Becaus

#

It's a sudden change

#

From -3 to 3

faint verge
#

o

unique nebula
#

If you do the limits

#

You can say there's a left limit

faint verge
#

its like left and right limits not =ing each other

unique nebula
#

And a right liit

#

Yes

#

That will be one very useful algebraic thing

#

You should keep that in mind

unique nebula
unique nebula
#

If you'd like you can go directly for continous but not differentiable too

faint verge
#

its continuous on [-2, 0) u (0, 2) u (2, 3]

unique nebula
#

ok

#

Looks about right

#

You don't need to care about x=-2 or x=3 though

faint verge
#

its continuous but not differentiable at x = -1

unique nebula
#

Looks about right

faint verge
#

ok and

unique nebula
#

And?

#

Finish the question

faint verge
#

c is either 0 or 2

unique nebula
#

You don't say 'either'

#

You say both 0 and 2 are not continuous

faint verge
#

i think it cant be 0

unique nebula
#

And discontinuity implies non differentiability

faint verge
#

oh

unique nebula
#

So the 'nor differentiable' means nothing

faint verge
#

so theyre both for c

unique nebula
#

Can't be 0?

#

What's the left limit at 0?

#

What's the right limit at 0?

faint verge
#

3 and 0

unique nebula
#

In 1-dimensions you literally only have left and right limits

#

In 2 or more dimensions this niceness disappears

unique nebula
faint verge
#

but it cant be

#

bc its not continuous

unique nebula
#

I think you have all the answers you need

turbid maple
#

how would I graph this?
y = x - 1
y = 9 - x

obtuse pebbleBOT
royal basin
#

would you be able to graph one of these equations individually?

royal basin
#

if i asked you to graph just y = x-1 could you do it

turbid maple
#

no

#

like i do know -1 is the constant

royal basin
#

"the constant" is vague.

#

ok, let's try to prod deeper.

#

do you know how to graph linear equations and/or straight lines generally?

turbid maple
royal basin
#

... let's go with something like y = 2x + 3

turbid maple
#

like this

#

as you start with 3 and then do rise and run

#

rise = 5
run = 1

#

and then u connect the line

royal basin
#

rise = 5
run = 1

#

the rise is how much you've risen. from 3 to 5 is not 5, but 2

#

also this is only two points and not a line

#

i want a straight line

#

you know what a straight line is, don't you?

turbid maple
royal basin
#

ok

#

then draw me a straight line through those points

turbid maple
royal basin
#

uhhh

#

something strange happened with the negative x-axis there

#

did you do it like that on purpose?

turbid maple
#

wdym

royal basin
#

somehow it slipped past me the first time around

#

but like, the part of the x-axis between -1 and 0 is stretched a lot

#

making the x-intercept of your line fall into it

#

when it's not supposed to do that

#

as the x-int of y = 2x+3 is -1.5

turbid maple
#

huh 😭

#

I'm confused

#

on what ur tryna say

nocturne minnow
royal basin
#

look at these

turbid maple
#

the teacher gives us graph

#

that was a quick sketch

nocturne minnow
#

as the x-int of y = 2x+3 is -1.5
The x int is where it crosses the x axis, ann stated that the x int is -1.5, you line does not pass through -1.5

royal basin
#

ok right but like

#

^

#

the reason it doesn't do that is because your negative x-axis is wonky!

nocturne minnow
turbid maple
royal basin
#

the line is fine

#

the axis labeling is wonky

#

and i told you exactly how it is wonky

#

i can repeat myself

turbid maple
#

what about now?

royal basin
#

now it is unfinished

#

it is only a line segment

turbid maple
royal basin
#

a line segment is the part of a line enclosed between two points

#

you stopped at those two points you drew instead of extending past them into a proper line ...

turbid maple
royal basin
#

there we go. that's better.

#

could extend further downward, but whatever.

#

say, if you don't mind sharing, how old are you?

turbid maple
#

15

#

currently in grade 10

royal basin
#

k

#

anyway

#

alright

#

so you know how to graph straight lines generally, by the looks of it

#

do you have graph paper with you? if you don't, it'll be hard to make an accurate graph.

royal basin
#

right

#

take your graph paper, draw a pair of coordinate axes on it, graph y = x - 1, then on the same pair of axes graph y = -x + 9

turbid maple
#

how would I graph the x

#

that's what I was confused on

royal basin
#

wdym "the x"?

turbid maple
#

y = -x + 9

#

or would I put a 1

royal basin
#

i don't really understand what you mean by "graphing the x"... the equation is one whole thing

#

you don't rip letters out of it

#

do the words "slope" and "y-intercept" ring bells to you maybe?

turbid maple
#

so I knew where to graph it

royal basin
#

ok so then what you're confused about is the slope of these things

#

would you like me to just tell you, or would you like to be enlightened

turbid maple
#

can you tell me

royal basin
#

y = x - 1 can be read as y = 1x - 1

#

and y = -x + 9 can be read as y = **(-1)**x + 9

turbid maple
#

how did u change it to

#

y = -x +9

royal basin
#

9 + (-x) = -x + 9?

#

commutative law of addition, if you want

turbid maple
#

is this right

royal basin
#

the bottom one is a bit off. it doesn't go through (2, 1) when it should

#

and also should extend far enough to meet the other one

turbid maple
#

oh

#

so its wrong ?

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@turbid maple Has your question been resolved?

turbid maple
#

<@&286206848099549185>

royal basin
#

it's kind of annoying actually

turbid maple
#

if im not understanding on what ur saying

#

if it's annoying then don't answer me

#

I can wait for someone else

royal basin
#

the bottom line is in a slightly wrong position

#

the bottom line should go through the point (2, 1) but it does not

#

this is something you should fix

#

the bottom line should also extend far enough that the point where it meets the top line should be visible

#

do you understand this y/n

#

i am trying my best to use simple phrasing here

sweet heath
#

I've put it into a system of equations like this, and I'm assuming that solving this as a matrix will give one answer, but I am still confused on whether that would be the correct way to solve the problem, or if there is more to it

spice citrus
#

I think guessing and checking should also possible, since all coefficients are +-1

#

If they are linearly independent there should just be one solution

#

*they aren't v + w = y

sweet heath
#

maybe it was meant to do that though

spice citrus
#

maybe there are none

#

but if there is a solution, it should have that b is also a linear combination of u, v and w

sweet heath
spice citrus
#

Suppose b = k1 * u + k2 * v + k3 * w + k4 * y

#

then you could substitute y = v + w

#

nvm

#

I was multiplying the coeffcients for some reason, I'm sorry

sweet heath
#

no worries

spice citrus
#

One thing to note though is that u + v + w + y = (4, 0, 0, 0)

#

w + y = (2, 0, -2, 0)

#

Do you know if the vectors are linearly independent btw?

sweet heath
spice citrus
#

From this it follows btw that 2u + w + y = (4, 2, 0, 2)

# spice citrus yes

in that case, wouldn't there just be 1 unique solution where this becomes true?

spice citrus
#

If you have the vectors (0, 1) and (0, 2) for example there are infinitely many ways of writing (0, 3) as a linear combination of them

#

(0, 1) and (0, 2) are not linearly independent

#

but (0, 1) and (1, 0) are for example

sweet heath
spice citrus
#

Yes

sweet heath
#

ok, got it

spice citrus
#

I'm not sure how to calculate linear independence though

#

Quickly at least, calculating the determinant of the matrix is also enough

sweet heath
sweet heath
#

Don't know why that sent twice

spice citrus
#

I tried sending messages as well, but they wouldn't sent

#

now it's workign though

sweet heath
spice citrus
#

Probably, I think you can assume that there is no infinite family of solutions

You're welcome

sweet heath

I'll try to replicate what you did and reach that same solution myself as well

a. asks if 2^2=4

jade summit

then #discrete-math, but i think its more suitable for proofs and logic.

# golden sand a. asks if 2^2=4

What does it mean though? Like, I know it's asking if (2, 4) belongs in R but I can't wrap my head around what it's trying to explain to/ask me in the first place

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@jade summit Has your question been resolved?

golden sand
#

relation is just a set of ordered pairs of elements

#

more "general" than a function, which is a "kind" of relation

jade summit
#

what do you mean by that?

#

sorry, just pretty confused

golden sand
#

x<y is not a function because 1<2 and 1<3 but is a relation

static marten
#

can you try and find an equation for the tangent?

hollow lodge
static marten
#

do you know y-y1=m(x-x1)?

hollow lodge
#

yhh

static marten
#

and we have information for that at A

hollow lodge
#

but what numbers should i input

static marten
#

gradient is 3.1, A(3,30) right?

hollow lodge
#

yeahh

#

sorry im so confused 😭

static marten
hollow lodge
#

not really

#

is 3.1=m ?

static marten
#

yes the gradient

#

and your x1 and y1 are the coordinates of any point on the line

#

we have A

hollow lodge
#

so would it be: y-30 = 3.1(x-3)

static marten
#

yeah

#

and we can move it around to get y=3.1x+20.7

hollow lodge
#

ohh

#

then just sub x for whatever value B or C is at x?

static marten
#

yeah

hollow lodge
#

so for B it would be y=3.1(3.2) + 20.7

#

thank you so much

how do i do C?

obtuse pebbleBOT
wicked ice
#

i got it to log 8 1/32 but im not sure how to continue from there

static marten
#

express in powers of 2

wicked ice
#

so log 8 2^-5

static marten
#

$log_8(2^{-5})=\frac{log_2(2^{-5})}{log_2(8)}$

warm shaleBOT
#

chlamydia

sage iron
#

change of base formula

#

also 2 = 8^(1/3) which might come in handy

wicked ice
sage iron

so 2^(-5) = [8^(1/3)]^(-5) = 8^(-5/3)

slate pawn
#

I took a practice test, and I got this one wrong . The answer is (0,infty) right. If i'm not mistaken, cuz the rubic function is the only one that is increasing, due to the domain restrictions?

civic zealot
#

yes, it's (0, infinity)

slate pawn
#

And also, for this I'm kinda confused . Aren't these the only ones that fit?

dusk widget
slate pawn
#

So the exponential function is the only one that fits, because it never touches the x-axis, while the rest do at one point or another

#

right?

dusk widget
#

well, yes

#

I mean not quite but

slate pawn
#

wait and rational functions too?

#

yeah cuz they don't touch any axis

dusk widget
#

rational functions have horizontal asymptotes only if the polynomial in the numerator has a degree equal to or lower than the polynomial in the denominator

#

otherwise you will not get a horizontal asymptote

dusk widget
#

exponentials can touch the x-axis if you shift them down so

slate pawn
#

oh kk. I think this question is worded badly lol. So rationals and exponentials, if applicable have a horizontal asymptote

hello
can I ask what I did incorrectly with trying to find the sum of this infinite series?

eager knot
#

the 125/343 comes from (5/7)^3

#

here is the original problem
I just changed k to n because I like n more

native inlet
#

do you know what a geometric series looks like?

eager knot
#

like this, right?

#

<@&286206848099549185> (infinite series sums) can someone help please trollge

viscid gull
#

ye

viscid gull
#

U wrote the wrong ratio tho

eager knot
#

how did I use the wrong ratio

viscid gull
#

U said r = 2/7

#

should be 5/7

#

Oh nvm

eager knot
#

nah the 2/7 is ( 1 - r)

viscid gull
#

ok no clue what you did wrong then sully

eager knot
#

same doesn't everything look right 😭

viscid gull
#

hmmm

eager knot
#

it asked to simplify so maybe I just didn't simplify the fraction enough?

viscid gull
#

Lemme check something

#

Oh maybe

#

yeah nvm the thing I was checking didn't find anything wrong

eager knot
#

yeah this is as simplified as possible and it's still wrong

#

nvm that simpoilfication is wrong

#

yeah it was just simplification issues 😭

hello

#

how does the following formula work?

upper shuttle
#

Smurf cat!

fresh musk
#

f'(x)=(f(x)-f(a))/x-a

#

for calculating the derivitave

royal basin
#

key part omitted tho

upper shuttle
#

I think there should also be a lim

royal basin
#

and slightly off notation

fresh musk
royal basin
#

$f'(a) = \lim_{x\to a} \frac{f(x)-f(a)}{x-a}$

warm shaleBOT
fresh musk
#

i forgot

royal basin
#

did you maybe mean this?

fresh musk
#

yeah that one

royal basin
#

ok now what exactly did you want to know about this?

upper shuttle
#

sorry!

fresh musk
royal basin
#

as in the idea behind it?

fresh musk
#

yep

royal basin
#

average rate of change over progressively smaller x intervals

fresh musk
#

what does that mean

royal basin
#

do you know what average rate of change is

fresh musk
#

yes

royal basin
#

right

#

the instantaneous rate of change of the function f at the point a is the limit of its average rates of change over [a,x] as this interval shrinks to a point

fresh musk
#

oh

#

i learnt it through this one

#

are they the same?

#

the two formulas

royal basin
#

yes, it's just a notational difference.

#

nvm i get it now

Oooh my bad

royal basin
#

and not something less gendered

cobalt night

I understand now

I know the point

#

My bad

royal basin

anyway

#

heres a little diagram from wikipedia

cobalt night
#

?

royal basin
#

well not blindly you don't

cobalt night
royal basin
#

you read the expression and put what you're asked for

#

are you not able to take a screenshot

cobalt night
#

Yea but I'm here for the answer

royal basin
#

no

#

we don't do that here

cobalt night
#

C'mon man

royal basin
#

no

cobalt night
#

I remember last 2 years ago I came here and I got the answer sooo fast

royal basin
#

how could you be here two years ago if you are a freshman (presumably 13?) now

cobalt night
royal basin
cobalt night
#

That all

royal basin
#

idk who this "he" is

cobalt night
#

But why y'all change the rules

royal basin
#

our policy is fairly clear, we don't give out answers.

cobalt night
#

I forgot I don't remember

#

Anyways can I get help

royal basin
#

help you can get.

#

answers you won't.

cobalt night
#

It's the same thing

royal basin
#

no it isn't.

fresh musk
cobalt night
#

Your helping someone to get the answer

fresh musk
#

so just count how many there are

royal basin
#

helping someone get the answer

#

IS NOT THE SAME THING

cobalt night
royal basin
#

as just giving them the answer on a silver platter

cobalt night
cobalt night
royal basin
#

so far you've wasted your own time by insisting upon just getting answers.

#

and i've been trying to provide you with the help you need.

cobalt night
#

Bro I need da A I'm not tryna get whooped

royal basin
#

don't call me bro.

#

2nd offense.

cobalt night
#

O I'm sorry

#

Ong I keep missing typing that

royal basin
#

it's in your best interest to not bite (misgender) the hand that feeds you (me)

Cuz I keep saying it to anyone

royal basin
#

anyway

cobalt night
royal basin
#
9a - 6b + 3c + 13
cobalt night
#

Okay

royal basin
#

when you add or subtract several things together, you get a sum. an algebraic sum if you want to be fancy. and the stuff that went into it are called terms.

cobalt night
#

Okay

royal basin
#

the first question asks: how many terms are there in your expression?

royal basin
#

no

#

you just count how many terms there are

cobalt night
#

Yea there is 2

#

Add and subtract

royal basin
#

no there are not 2.

#

no there are more than 2 terms

#

ok let's try this

#

see if you remember this from way back in like kindergarten

#

🍏 🍏 🍏 🍎 🍎 🍎 🍎

#

how many apples

cobalt night
#

3

#

Green

#

4 red

royal basin
#

the correct answer was "7". i did not ask you to break it down by color.

cobalt night
#

7

#

Yea it's 7

royal basin
#

in the expression

9a - 6b + 3c + 13

you have the following terms: 9a, -6b, 3c, 13

#

how many is that

cobalt night
#

4

royal basin
#

great

cobalt night
#

Letters ?

#

I mean numbers

#

**

royal basin
#

terms.

#

they're called terms.

cobalt night
#

Yea 4 terms

royal basin
#

three of the terms consist of a number multiplied by a letter.

cobalt night
#

What??

royal basin
#

and the last term is just a lone number.

cobalt night
#

Ok

royal basin
cobalt night
#

I didn't say that

#

I mean what like confused

royal basin
#

im trying to understand what you're confused about

#

cause it ain't that clear to me from just your "What??"

cobalt night
#

I didn't understand what you said

#

I'm saying what

royal basin
#

which word(s) did you not understand?

cobalt night
royal basin
#

"three", "consist", "number", "multiplied", "letter"
which of these words escaped you

cobalt night
#

Wait wait

#

3 numbers

#

You multiple

#

Letters

#

Is that what you mean

royal basin
#

"3 numbers you multiple letters" barely qualifies as english.

cobalt night
royal basin
#

i think you don't but whatever.

cobalt night
#

How you know ?

#

Nah bro I think you spying on me fr

#

Anyways

royal basin
#

3rd offense

cobalt night
#

Oh my bad

#

I swear I don't realize

#

That I'm saying it

royal basin
#

bad habit deserves breaking

cobalt night
#

I swear ann

cobalt night
#

Anyways

royal basin
#

b) What is the constant of the expression?
the constant is the number that isn't attached to any letters

c) What is the second term in the expression?
should be self-explanatory if you know how to count

d) What is the coefficient of the third term?
a term consists of a number multiplied by one or more letters (or sometimes no letters). the coefficient is the number part.

#

run-down of all the necessary terminology i guess.

cobalt night
#

That's the answer how about A

royal basin
#

?

cobalt night
#

You didn't give the answer for A

fresh musk
#

you legit said it

cobalt night
#

What?

fresh musk
cobalt night
#

Yes there are 4 numbers so 4 terms

royal basin
#

imagine claiming you don't know the answer for part a after stating it

#

twice now

cobalt night
#
