add like terms
eg x - 3x = -2x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
huh?
OpenStudy (cwrw238):
iits a subtract but u can look upon it as add
x + (-3x) = -2x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x − 4y + 5z − 3x − y + 2z
Re-arrange them and then solve
x-3x-4y-y+5z+2z
-2x-5y+7z :)

It's option number C :)

6
8
14
0

i mean i got 14 is that correct
OpenStudy (cwrw238):
16 - 10 / 2 + 3
= 16 - 5 - 3
= 11 - 3 = 8
OpenStudy (cwrw238):
following the following rule
PEDMAS
in order of priority
parentheses, exponent, divide multiply add subtract
OpenStudy (anonymous):
isn't it 16 - 5 +3
OpenStudy (cwrw238):
so you see how i did the division first?

Bob's Car Rentals charges a flat rate of $35 per day plus $3.50 per mile. If the number of miles is represented by "m", which algebraic expression represents the overall rate for the day using "m"?
38.50m
35m + 3.50
35 + 3.50m
31.50m
