Question

Which expression will you generate if you combine the like terms in 5x + 6x + y + y + 3y + 4 + 6 + 2?

Answer 1

the answer is C, because if you want to do it the short way, you can see that 5x+11x=11x, and the only one with 11x is C.

Hope I helped!

Answer 2

C. 11x + 5y + 12. You add all the terms with x which would be 5x + 6x = 11x. Then you add (1)y+ (1)y + 3y = 5y. Last part should be easy, 4 + 6 + 2 = 12. Combine all of those and you have 11x + 5y + 12.
