What do you need help with?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2. Combine like terms. 9 + 3x- 9x + 16 (Points : 4) 25-6x 18x + 3x + 16 19x 3x + 16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What kind of help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Firstly, you need to combine SIMILAR terms. An example of similar terms are constant numbers, and another example here is the variable x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, try adding the similar terms together and tell me what you get.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-9x and 3x are similar in this case.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is 25-6x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9+16=25 3x-9x=-6x So the answer is A, 25-6x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So is 16 and 9.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Looks like combining terms . . . Ah, um.......... you have to combine like terms in the equation: add the numbers with the constant variable.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes and some of those questions are already as simple as they can be

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x-3/2=-5 what is x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then you should get your answer which is: 25-6x. (I think).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There is no equal sign in your equation buddy.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x-3/2 is written like a fraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plug in the numbers and see.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You are regrouping similar terms, you're not solving for x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Things like 18x plus 3x plus 16? x is a shared term for 18 and 3 so you can add them to make 21x and then 16 is left over

@GodlyMaths I'm a GIRL.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

? @ComicPicLoyalty

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Ednac You're reading the question wrong.

myininaya (myininaya):

Please do not give direct answers. Please help the asker and lead the asker to the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right? Or is it \[21x + 16\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answers are -4 -7 -16 and - 13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You guys are making so complicated.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's 21x+16, all you have to do is regroup the similar terms.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Jhannybean , this is actually so cringe worthy.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks people thats all i need im like falling asleep doing these so
