Jessica solved for the correct value of a, but Sally's review was incorrect.
1. 4x - 8 + 2x + (-5x) + x^2 - 3 = 4x - 8 + 2x - 5x + x^2 - 3...now, we just combine like terms....lets group them...it will be easier ...x^2 + (4x + 2x - 5x ) - 8 - 3 = x^2 + x - 11
2. 2x + 5x = 8x
3. 2r + 4 + 3x - 2 = 3x + 2r + (4 - 2) = 3x + 2r + 2
4. 3x - 2y - x + 5y = (3x - x) + (5y - 2y) = 2x + 3y
5. 2y^2 - 8y^3 + 5y - 5y^2 + 4y^3 = (4y^3 - 8y^3) + (2y^2 - 5y^2) + 5y =
-4y^3 - 3y^2 + 5y
So,

Write in prime factored form.

Cross-cancel
1) Take 18 and multiply it by 5 = 90
2) Then subtract 26 = 64
3) Then subtract 18 = 46
4) Then subtract 12 = 34
5) Then subtract 8 = 26
The answer is 26.
