can you help with a few algebra questions?

1) explain why the statements are incorrect and write correct answers..

a. 40mn/ 5m X 2n = 4

b. 8z + 18^z2 X 6/ 3z = 9z

2) write algebraic equations for each of the following, using grouping symbols if necessary:

e. the product of a and b+ c subtracted from 5x

f. the product of p^2 and the square p + 1

4)

b. How long will it take a person to travel x km at y km/hr

c. write an equation for: 8 less than 6 times a number (x) is the same as 7 more than that number.

e. two angles of a triangle are x^o and y^o. Find the size of the third angle of the triangle.

Sorry for all the questions.. its just that I'm saving the number I can ask today... thanks for all answers!

    Hi,

    1) explain why the statements are incorrect and write correct answers..

    a. 40mn/ 5m X 2n = 16 <==ANSWER

    b. 8z + 18^z2 X 6/ 3z = 8z + 36z = 44z <==ANSWER

    2) write algebraic equations for each of the following, using grouping symbols if necessary:

    e. the product of a and b+ c subtracted from 5x 5x - a(b + c) <==ANSWER

    f. the product of p^2 and the square p + 1 p²(p + 1)² <==ANSWER

    4)

    b. How long will it take a person to travel x km at y km/hr x/y hours <==ANSWER

    c. write an equation for: 8 less than 6 times a number (x) is the same as 7 more than that number.

    6x - 8 = 7 + x <==ANSWER

    e. two angles of a triangle are x^o and y^o. Find the size of the third angle of the triangle.

    180 - (x° + y°) <==ANSWER

    I hope that helps!! :-)

    1) explain why the statements are incorrect and write correct answers..

    a. 40mn/ 5m X 2n = 4

    8n*2n=16n^2 is not 4

    correct answer is 16n^2

    b. 8z + 18^z2 X 6/ 3z = 9z

    8z+(18z^2(6)/3z)=8z+36z=45z, not 9z

    2) write algebraic equations for each of the following, using grouping symbols if necessary:

    e. the product of a and b+ c subtracted from 5x

    5x-[a(b+c)]

    f. the product of p^2 and the square p + 1

    (p^2)((p+1)^2)

    4)

    b. How long will it take a person to travel x km at y km/hr

    (x km)/(y km/hr)=(x km)(1/y hr/km)=x/y hr/km

    c. write an equation for: 8 less than 6 times a number (x) is the same as 7 more than that number.

    6x-8=x+7

    5x=15

    x=3

    e. two angles of a triangle are x^o and y^o. Find the size of the third angle of the triangle.

    x+y+z=180

    z=180-x-y

    Can't tell if you mean (40mn/(5n)×2n or 40mn/(5n×2n)
