do you know what like terms are ?
yes but i must be confusing myself somewhere
like terms are, well, terms that have the same variable. For instance, 6y and 12y are like terms. You cannot mix terms that are not alike. You cannot add 5x + 5z because the terms are not alike. So lets get our like terms together... 5x - x = 4x -6y - 12y = - 18y 5z + 2z = 7z now put them all together... 4x - 18y + 7z
