The sum of 6x - 2 and 2x - 7 is 8x - 9
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that we have to find the sum of 6x - 2 and 2x - 7
"Sum" means we have to add both the expressions
Sum of 6x - 2 and 2x - 7:
Remove the parenthesis and solve
Combine the like terms
The like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers. The coefficients do not need to match
Here like terms are 6x and 2x
Thus the sum is 8x - 9
I believe your answer is A.
4(x-3) cannot be a product or a sum as it is not simplified or finished, it is still missing a number. It cannot be D as it has three variables.
I deeply apologize if that is wrong but to my understanding your answer is A.
