Please help. I got 3m/4+7 I'm not sure what I got wrong, do I use a different formula or something..?

1 answer

To simplify the expression (3m/4-2)+9, we first simplify the expression within the parentheses:

(3m/4-2)+9 = (3m/4 - 2) + 9

Then, we combine like terms:

= 3m/4 - 2 + 9

= (3m/4) + (9 - 2)

= 3m/4 + 7

Therefore, the simplified expression is 3m/4 + 7, not 3m/4 + 28/4.

So, the correct answer is not among the options you provided.
