Question

8b–9b–5b+7b
Simplify the expression:

Answer 1

Answer:

b, or 1b

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, you have to combine like terms. In this situation though, they are all b. So start at the beginning. 8-9 is -1. -1 - 5 is -6. -6+7 is 1. So you say, b, because it is the same thing as 1 b.
