Simplify the following expression. 8x - 10y + 5z - 5x - 16y + 6z 3x - 6y + 11z 13x - 6y + 11z 13x - 26y + 11z 3x - 26y + 11z

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The letters are going to go together like 8x+-5x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it's going to be A?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well you have 2 choices right now A or D. We know that the first term is going to be 3x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it's D!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, so lets start: 8x - 10y + 5z - 5x - 16y + 6z add like terms... 3x - 26y + 11z

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you so much! you just make me love you more and more evertime I see you! love you<3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is why: You match all the terms together and then add them. 8x+-5x=3x, -10y+-16y=-26y, and 5z+6z=11z therefore it is D. 3x-26y+11z

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright thanks, love you<33333333

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3 x - 26 y + 11 z is the correct answer

OpenStudy (dwelsher):

3x-26y+11z

OpenStudy (anonymous):
