Answer 2

Answer

$\boxed{ \boxed{ \bold{ \red{ - 4a + 5b}}}}$

Step by step explanation

$\sf3(a + b) - 2(2a - b) + 4a - 7a$

Distribute 3 through the parentheses

⇒$\sf3a + 3b - 2(2a - b) + 4a - 7a$

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

⇒$\sf3a + 3b - 4a + 2b + 4a - 7a$

Collect like terms

⇒$\sf3a +4a - 4a - 7a + 3b + 2b$

Since , two opposites add up to zero, remove them from the expression

⇒$\sf3a - 7a + 3b + 2b$

⇒$\sf - 4a + 5b$

Hope I helped!
