7a^2b+8ab^2 -9a^2b

Answer 1

To simplify the expression 7a^2b + 8ab^2 - 9a^2b, we can combine like terms by adding or subtracting coefficients that have the same base and exponent.

Starting with the coefficients: 7 - 9 = -2

Next, we combine the terms with the same base and exponent:
-2a^2b + 8ab^2

So, the simplified expression is -2a^2b + 8ab^2.
