Question

Combine any like terms in the expression. If there are no like terms, rewrite the expression.
50uvw+44uvw+48–11uvw

Answer 1

To combine like terms in the expression \(50uvw + 44uvw + 48 - 11uvw\), we first identify the like terms, which are those that contain the variable \(uvw\).

Let's combine the coefficients of \(uvw\):
- \(50uvw + 44uvw - 11uvw\)

Calculating this:

\[
50 + 44 - 11 = 83
\]

So, the combined term for \(uvw\) is \(83uvw\).

Now we can rewrite the expression, including the constant term \(48\):

\[
83uvw + 48
\]

Thus, the simplified expression is:

\[
\boxed{83uvw + 48}
\]
