Question

ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Combine like terms. 4x – 7y + 2x – 4 = [ ? ]x + [ ]y + [ ]

Answer 1

Answer:

[6x] + [-7y] + [-4]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are only two like terms in this expression "4x" and "2x." Since they are like terms we can combine them by adding the coefficients and keeping the variable attached. Therefore we can combine 4x and 2x into 6x. Since there are no more like terms, this expression can be simplified to 6x - 7y - 4.

Answer 2

Answer:

6x - 7y - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 7y + 2x - 4

Combine like terms (by either subtracting or adding a number with the same variable)

4x + 2x = 6x

Thus, only one like term so the final answer is

6x - 7y - 4
