OpenStudy (arivillafana):

where is your question ?

Nnesha (nnesha):

nice username ask @Elsa213

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Opps sorry I thought I posted.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol @Nnesha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There are no like terms

Nnesha (nnesha):

if the variables are the same and the same exponent then those 2 terms are like terms you can combine their coefficient

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol @Nnesha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Second one, should (if I'm correct) be 2+17x-5x+9 ---->11+ 12x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because you add 9 plus 2, and then subtract 5x from 17x

Nnesha (nnesha):

example 3x+4x are like terms you can combine their coefficient (3+4)x=7x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think the second one is A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Also, if I am correct, 3(5y+6)-4, should be 15y+14

Nnesha (nnesha):

explain please.let him/her find the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Of course. Here is why I believe so. You need to distribute.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What about 1 and 4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, I don't know number one and I cannot see number 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@moonrose

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THis would be B, I will explain in a minute

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THis gives you that answer: 27(3) + 27(-p) gives you the answer :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hopefully you understand, if not I can explain :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay. There are all correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The ones I answered should be correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Number one is incorrect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Number 1 is incorrect because those are not like terms, it should be A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Reasoning being that y and 1.2y are like terms, hence the y :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay thx soo much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're welcomed :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay I fanned, medal, and testimonialed. thx all
