Simplify the expression

8c + 6 - 3c - 2

• 5c + 4

• 5c + 8

• 11c + 4

• 11c + 8

Combine the like terms in the expression:

5x + 3y + 5 + 4x + 3y + y + 8

• 9x + 7y + 13

• 6x + 2y + 2

• 25x + 2y + 3

Combine the like terms in the expression: 5x + 3y + 5 + 4x + 3y + y + 8

• 9x + 7y + 13

• 6x + 2y + 2

• 25x + 2y + 3

Find the difference by first distributing then combining

• 15.6t - 1

• -9.6t - 1

• 15.6t + 15

• -9.6t + 15

5x + 3y + 5 + 4x + 3y + y + 8

• 9x + 7y + 13

• 6x + 2y + 2

• 25x + 2y + 3

Simplify the expression

3m - 15 + 2m - 4

• 5m - 19

• m + 19

• 5m - 15

• 24m
