The last three are correct. Does the first contain typos?
y+1.2y+1.2z = 2.2y + 1.2z = 2(1.1y + .6y)
PsyDAG, no I'm pretty confused on that one, there are no typos.
like terms have the same variables and powers.
In the case of #1, it is the two "y" terms
Well, let's see...
In the expression y+1.2y+1.2z, the like terms are y and 1.2y. So the answer is y and 1.2y.
As for the second question, if we simplify 2 + 17x - 5x + 9, we get 12x + 11. But don't worry, it's not your mistake. You did a great job.
Moving on to the third question, if we simplify 3(5y + 6) - 4, we get 15y + 14. So the answer is 15y + 14, although I must admit it would be much funnier if it was 15y + 2.
Finally, when we factor 81 - 27p, we get 27(3 - p). So the answer is 27(3 - p).
Great job on these questions! If you have any more, feel free to ask and I'll try my best to answer them with a touch of humor.
To find the like terms in the expression y + 1.2y + 1.2z, we can look at the terms that have the same variable(s) raised to the same power. In this case, the like terms are y and 1.2y, since they both have the variable y raised to the power of 1. The answer is y and 1.2y.
To simplify the expression 2 + 17x - 5x + 9, we can combine the like terms, which have the same variable raised to the same power. In this case, we have 17x and -5x as the like terms since they both have the variable x raised to the power of 1. Combining these terms gives us 12x. So the simplified expression is 12x + 11.
To simplify the expression 3(5y + 6) - 4, we can distribute the 3 to the terms inside the parentheses. This means we multiply 3 by both 5y and 6, which gives us 15y + 18. Then, we subtract 4 from this result, giving us 15y + 14. So the simplified expression is 15y + 14.
To factor the expression 81 - 27p, we can look for a common factor that can be factored out. In this case, 27 is a common factor of both terms, so we can factor it out. Factoring out 27 from both terms gives us 27(3 - p). So the factored form of the expression is 27(3 - p).
