Question
Add:
5x2 – 3xy + 4y2 – 9, 7y2 + 5xy – 2x2 + 13
Advertisements
Solution
We have,
(5x2 – 3xy + 4y2 – 9) + (7y2 + 5xy – 2x2 + 13)
= 5x2 – 3xy + 4y2 – 9 + 7y2 + 5xy – 2x2 + 13
= (5x2 – 2x2) + (–3xy + 5xy) + (4y2 + 7y2) + (–9 + 13) ...[Grouping like terms]
= 3x2 + 2xy + 11y2 + 4

At age of 2 years, a cat or a dog is considered 24 “human” years old. Each year, after age 2 is equivalent to 4 “human” years. Fill in the expression [24 + 
(a – 2)] so that it represents the age of a cat or dog in human years. Also, you need to determine for what ‘a’ stands for. Copy the chart and use your expression to complete it.
