Basically that answer is incorrect. If you'd learn about combining, multiplying, dividing or subtracting like terms, this will be a simple problem. To be specific, like term is a number with a letter with it.
For example, 2.4z is a like term.
so you can only add like term, not any other normal number. When two terms have the same "letter", you will have to do what the sign said so in the problem....
2.4z + 1.2z - 6.5 = 0.7
3.6z - 6.5 = 0.7 (Add but leave the z alone because you are not multiplying)
The final answer is 3.6z - 6.5 because you cannot do anything else to that problem.
3.6z-6.5=0.7 is not true.
3v + w +8 - 2n

Simplifying
3v + w + 8 + -2n
Reorder the terms:
8 + -2n + 3v + w

You have to add the 2 yards together... 5,215 + 1,850 = 7,065. If 2 bags will cover 2,500 square feet, then 1 bag will cover 1,250. Divide 7,065 by 1,250 and you will need 6 bags of seed. For problem 2, add all the purchases together, which will be $250.50. This will get him a 30% discount. So his total price after the discount will be about $175.35. For problem 3, this is an exponential function. The $10,000 loan with 9% rate over 5 years is equal to 10,000(1+0.09)^5 which is about $15,500, so he will have to pay an additional $5,500.
