Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, you are combining like terms, meaning doing equations to numbers that fit with only each other.
<u>So we should start on the number without variables:</u>
23 and 27
<u>Match them up together and you should find your first equation:</u>
23 - 7
==> -4
So we should have -4 + 8m + 4n - 5m
Now we should combine the numbers with the variable of m:
8m and 5m
<u>Match them up together and you should find your first equation:</u>
<u></u>
8m - 5m
==> 3m
So we should now have -4 + 3m + 4n
<u></u>
<u>Since there are no other variables of n, we are all done:</u>
<u>-4 + 3m + 4n is your final answer </u>
