9x plus 3y -6-5x plus 4y-3

Simplify

3 answers

To simplify the expression \( 9x + 3y - 6 - 5x + 4y - 3 \), we can combine like terms.

  1. Combine the \( x \) terms: \[ 9x - 5x = 4x \]

  2. Combine the \( y \) terms: \[ 3y + 4y = 7y \]

  3. Combine the constant terms: \[ -6 - 3 = -9 \]

Putting it all together, we get: \[ 4x + 7y - 9 \]

Thus, the simplified expression is: \[ \boxed{4x + 7y - 9} \]

just 1 number

To simplify the expression \(9x + 3y - 6 - 5x + 4y - 3\) into a single number, you would need specific values for \(x\) and \(y\).

If you substitute values for \(x\) and \(y\), you can compute a single numerical result from the simplified expression.

For example, if \(x = 1\) and \(y = 2\):

  1. Substitute the values: \[ 9(1) + 3(2) - 6 - 5(1) + 4(2) - 3 \] \[ = 9 + 6 - 6 - 5 + 8 - 3 \] \[ = 9 + 6 - 6 - 5 + 8 - 3 = 9 \]

If you provide specific values for \(x\) and \(y\), I can calculate a single number for you.
