Combine like terms to simplify the expression below 5y-8x-y+12x

1 answer:

6 0

There are like terms 5y and y. Since there is a subtraction sign in front of y, we would subtract that from 5y, which becomes 4y. 8x and 12x are also like terms (x). Since 12x has an addition sign in front, indicating it's positive, we would add it to -8x (which is negative b/c of the subtraction sign in front). 12x + -8x = 4x. The expression is 4y + 4x.

In order to solve this problem we will need to know the Pythagoras theorem that states that in a right angled triangle the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite to the right angel) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. This theorem can be written as an equation....

$c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2}$
