To simplify the expression (2c – 3 – 5c + 7 + 9c – c), follow these steps:
1. Combine like terms: Look for terms that involve (c) and constant terms.
– The (c) terms are: (2c – 5c + 9c – c).
– Combine these:
– (2c – 5c = -3c)
– (-3c + 9c = 6c)
– (6c – c = 5c)
2. Combine the constant terms: The constant terms are: (-3 + 7).
– Combine:
– (-3 + 7 = 4)
Putting it all together, the simplified expression is:
[5c + 4]
So the answer is 5c + 4. Great job on practicing simplification! If you have more questions, feel free to ask.
