(5.6x - 4) + (16 - 2.1x) What is the sum of this expression?

Damm [24]

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\large\textsf{(5.6x - 4) + (16 - 2.1x)}$

$\large\text{DROP the PARENTHESES}$

$\large\textsf{5.6x - 4 + 16 - 2.1x}$

$\large\text{COMBINE the LIKE TERMS}$

$\large\textsf{5.6x - 2.1x - 4 + 16}$

$\large\textsf{5.6x - 2.1x = \bf 3.5x}$

$\large\textsf{-4 + 16 = \bf 12}$

$\large\textsf{= \bf 3.5x + 12 }$

$\boxed{\boxed{\large\text{Answer: \huge \bf 3.5x + 12}}}\huge\checkmark$
