In this problem “like terms” has two groups: one with a number and y, and one with just numbers. First I’ll rewrite the equation with the terms in a different order, grouped with like terms. Then we’ll do the math for them:
7y + 10 + 3y - 4 - 6y
= 7y + 3y - 6y + 10 - 4
= 10y - 6y + 6
= 4y + 6
Let me know if you have questions on this.

We know that : (a - b)(a + b) = a² - b²

We know that : 1 - sin²x = cos²x



We know that : sec²x = 1 + tan²x







Answer:
0.04 is as close as it gets
The perimeter of an object is found by adding all of the sides. The sides of his frame would be 2 ft, 2 ft, 1.5 ft (18 inches / 12 inches per foot = 1.5 feet), 1.5 feet. Adding these together we get a total length of 7 feet. However, he may want to use a slightly longer board to account for any errors!
