Explanation:
_______________________________________________
(12a <span>+ 7b) + (−6a − 9) + (14a − 12b) =
12a </span><span>+ 7b + 1(−6a − 9) + 1(14a − 12b) =
</span>
12a + 7b + (1*-6a) + (1*-9) + (1*14a) + (1* -12b) =
12a + 7b − 6a − 9 + 14a − 12b = ?
Combine the "like terms:
12a − 6a + 14a = 20a ;
7b − 12b = - 5b ;
and then we have "-9" ;

So, write as: " 20a − 5b − 9 " ; which is: Answer choice: [A].

Step-by-step explanation:
Jackie traveled four times as many miles by bus as by foot. This means that the number of miles travelled by bus is 4 units, and the number of miles travelled by foot is 1 unit.
Jackie traveled three times as many miles by train as by bus. We know that the number of miles travelled by bus is 4 units, so the number of miles travelled by train is 
units.
Total number of units: 
Divide 17:
The number of miles travelled by train is 12 units:
