Combine like terms. 9 + 3x – 9x + 16 A. 3x + 16 B. 25 – 6x C. 19x D. 18x + 3x + 16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

add 9 and 16 and subtract 3x from -9x

OpenStudy (igreen):

^ Like terms have the same variables. You can't combine 9 and 3x because they have different variables. You can combine 3x and -9x because they have the same variable, 'x'.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
