Like terms would be taking all of the ones with a and getting them alone, all of the ones with b alone, and all plain numbers alone to simplify

1) 2a+3-5a+8b
****= -3a+8b+3****
take 2a-5a and that is your answer

2) 6a+rs-4a+6rs
=2a+rs+6rs
combine the a's 6a-4a
****=2a+7rs****
1rs+6rs combine rs's and that's it :)

**** is the answers

Alrighty, what I was always taught was to start by writing out what you know from the question.

What I know:
-Tom is paid $0.23 for every page of proofs.
-He proofreads 1,992 pages.

In order to figure out how much money Tom has made, we need to multiply 0.23 by 1,992. Multiplying allows us to see the total amount of money made by proofreading x amount of pages - for every page he proofreads, he makes $0.23.
0.23×1992=458.16

Therefore, Tom made $458.16.

Hope this helps!
