h + 12 + p + 24 = h + p + 36
9/4x + 4 + 2x

First step is 9/4x + 2x = ?
The first step is to combine like terms:

9/4x + 2x = (9/4 + 8/4)x

Adding the numerators and keeping the common denominator:

(9 + 8)/4x = 17/4x

So, 9/4x + 2x simplifies to 17/4x.

The expression becomes:

17/4x + 4
No actually the answers are

15x + 12

5x + 4

x + 4

11/3x + 4
Apologies for the confusion. Let's solve the expression correctly:

9/4x + 4 + 2x

To simplify, we first combine like terms:

9/4x + 2x = (9/4 + 8/4)x = (17/4)x

The simplified expression becomes:

(17/4)x + 4

There are no more like terms to combine, so this is the final simplified expression for 9/4x + 4 + 2x
simplify this

5y - 2y + 1 + 4
To simplify the expression 5y - 2y + 1 + 4, we first combine like terms:

5y - 2y = (5 - 2)y = 3y

Next, we combine the constants 1 and 4:

1 + 4 = 5

Thus, the simplified expression is:

3y + 5
(5y - 1) + (-2y + 4)
To simplify the expression (5y - 1) + (-2y + 4), we first remove the parentheses:

5y - 1 + -2y + 4

Next, we combine like terms:

(5y - 2y) + (-1 + 4) = 3y + 3

Therefore, the simplified expression is:

3y + 3
(3/4x - 1) + (3/4x - 2)

first step is: (3/4x + 3/4x)
The first step is to remove the parentheses and combine like terms:

(3/4x - 1) + (3/4x - 2)

To add the fractions with the same denominator, we add the numerators:

(3/4x + 3/4x) + (-1 - 2) = 6/4x + (-3)

Simplifying further:

6/4x - 3

Now, we can simplify the fraction by reducing it to lowest terms. Both the numerator and denominator can be divided by 2:

(6/2)(1/4x) - 3 = 3/2x - 3

Therefore, the simplified expression is:

3/2x - 3
