Well, honey, technically speaking, 5 x is the same as x 5 when we're talking about multiplication. The order of the numbers doesn't matter in multiplication, so whether you write 5 x or x 5, you're still getting the same result. Math doesn't care about the order, it just cares about getting the right answer, darling.
Let the unknown number be x. The equation representing the situation is x + 5 = 5x. Solving for x, we get x = 1. Therefore, the number that, when added to 5, is the same as when multiplied by 5 is 1.
An Exponent is a shorthand notation for repeated multiplication of the same factor. For instance: 5^4 actually means 5 x 5 x 5 x 5 = 625
the order of the factors does not alter the result
Absolutely not ! 5 x 4.5 = 22.5 while 5 x 127 = 635 !
x-4=8+x/5 5(x-4)=5(8+x/5) 5x-20=8+x 4x=28 x=7
(x-5) is the same as x-5
Yes: x+5 is the same as 5+x
No, ( x - 5 ) is not the same as ( 5 - x ). The expression ( x - 5 ) represents a value that decreases by 5, while ( 5 - x ) represents a value that decreases by ( x ) from 5. In fact, ( 5 - x ) is the negative of ( x - 5 ), meaning they have opposite signs.
Yes. Because the x and the 5 can change in same ways.
No they're not the same, 5 * 4.5= 22.5, while 5 * 115= 575
Yes.
yes
5^4 is the same as 5 x 5 x 5 x 5 = 625
Yes. Because the x and the 5 can change in same ways.
5 x 5 x 5
That's the same as (-5) x (-5) x (-5).
The same as (-5) x (-5).
