Question

4a^2 - 7b + 2ab - a^2 + b

Answer 1

Answer:

3a^2 - 6b + 2ab

Step-by-step explanation:

Put all the like terms together

(4a^2 - a^2) - (7b + b) + 2ab

then simplify

(4a^2 - a^2) = 3a^2

(-7b + b) = -6b

then rewrite

3a^2 - 6b + 2ab

Answer 2

Answer:

3a^2 - 6b + 2ab

Step-by-step explanation:

Add like terms together so shifting the equation a little to make it easier to add:

4a^2 - 7b + 2ab - a^2 + b

4a^2 - a^2 - 7b + b + 2ab

3a^2 - 6b + 2ab
