Answer 1

Answer:

Terms:

• -5x
• 4
• -x
• -1

Like Terms:

• -5x and -x
• 4 and -1

Coefficients:

• The coefficient of -5x is -5.

• The coefficient of -x is -1.

Constants:

• 4
• -1

You simplify the expression by combining like terms:

-5x + 4 - x - 1 = -6x + 5

(7b - 4) + (-2b + a + 1) = 7b - 4 - 2b + a + 1 = 5b + a - 3
