Answer: Alligators
Step-by-step explanation: This entire paper is just about combining like terms.
I won't go too in depth about it since it's self-explanatory, but I'll explain it just a bit. Like terms are two terms that have the same variable. For example, 19 and 24 are like terms since they are both numbers. 15x and 18x are like terms since they are both the same variables. 2y and 5y are like terms since they are both the same variables. However, 3x and 4y are NOT like terms, they do not have the same variable.
Also, variables that have different exponential powers are also not like terms. For example, 5x^2 and 7x are not like terms as one is squares and one is to the 1st power. Similarly, 3x^3 is not the same variable as 2x^4.
When you have 5x and -2x, you subtract 5x and 2x. Thus, the combination would be 3x. When you have -4x - 2x, you would get -6x, and if you have -4x + 2x, you would get -2x.
What you were supposed to do is simplify the equations by combining like terms, and then crossing off the letters that correspond to what you have left in the expression. The remaining letters should spell out a joke.
Attached below I have provided the correct answer.
