These are like terms, meaning that they are completely the same disregarding the coefficient.
To combine like terms, add the coefficients.
16+(-12)=4
Final answer: 4x
-3(y-5) = 24...distribute through the parenthesis
-3y + 15 = 24....subtract 15 from both sides
-3y = 24 - 15
-3y = 9...divide both sides by -3
y = 9/-3
y = -3
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Bisector: QS


Required
Determine PQR
Since PQR is bisected to PQS and RQS, we have that

Substitute expressions for PQS and RQS

Collect Like Terms


Divide both sides by 3

Solving for PQR;



Substitute 2 for x
