To write this equation in simplest form, we simply need to combine all like terms. The like terms in this particular expression are the terms with an n-variable and the terms with no variable. So we can combine them to simplify our expression.
5n - 6 + n - 1
First step, we can reorder our terms so that like terms are near each other
5n + n - 6 - 1
Now we can combine easily
(5n + n) - (6 - 1)
6n - 5
And that is your simplified expression.
5n - 6 + n - 1 in simplest form is 6n - 5.
Hope that helped! =)
Given
To find a solution for the linear equation, the first step is to write the equation in slope-intercept form:
-Pass the x-term to the right side of the equation by applying the opposite operation to both sides of the equal sign:
-Divide both sides by -2:
Once you have expressed the equation of the line in slope-intercept form, replace it with any value for x and calculate the corresponding value of y, for example, x=2
One solution for the linear equation is x=2 and y=-6, you can check the solution by replacing the values on the original equation, with both values the result should be 8:
As you can see the values are a valid solution for the linear equation.
So the solution is:
<span>5m + 3n + p -5p + 3n + 2n - m
= 4m + 8n - 4p (combine like terms)
hope it helps</span>

Answer:
a, b, c --- all <em>not</em> representative
Step-by-step explanation:
The question posed by the engineer is "are residents of the city in favor of ...".
The only representative sample is one from a pool that includes <em>all residents of the city</em>—not just those who (a) use the road, (b) live along the road, or (c) own homes.
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
The engineer may want to refine the question. As posed, it would include children, homeless, and/or institutionalized residents of the city as well as drivers and tax-payers. In inclusive cultural traditions, "residents of the city" may also include animals, plants, water, air, and other holders of spiritual energy.
