@dmart180 Please do not give direct answers as OpenStudy is against it. http://openstudy.com/code-of-conduct

ahhh who cares
it
And we try to teach others on OpenStudy and not give them the answer. Otherwise how will they do it on a test?
So @jenheaven 2x + 4 + 3x + 2 = ? Lets solve it by putting the like terms together. What are the like terms?
She didn't ask for an explanation.
But still.
Ok sorry. Let the rookie off the hook?
Lets ask anyone here @sammixboo @shrutipande9 @Directrix @sleepyjess @pooja195
Sure thing @dmart180 I know that you are new here :) Just don't do it next time :)
Got it.
oh so basically you have to take the 2 expressions and solve them and add together

@dmart180 >>Ok sorry. Let the rookie off the hook? If we let you off one hook, we will have to let you off several hooks. But, you are a rookie. http://openstudy.com/users/dmart180
