Answer: Yes; you do combine "-w" and "4w" ; because they are both "like terms" ; that is, they are both terms with the SAME first degree single variable in the entire expression.
So, to combine them:
-w + 4w = -1w + 4w = 3w ;
and we can simplify the entire expression:
" -w + 4w + 12 " ;

to: " 3w + 12 " .

Here we MUST follow Order of Operations rules.
Must start out by doing the work inside the parentheses: (8+7) = 15
Next, multiply this result by 3: 3(15)=45 (answer)
You will have to work out the given versions of this problem until you find one that is also equal to 45.
