To simplify \(4x + 8x\), you can combine like terms. Both terms have \(x\) as a variable.

So,

\[ 4x + 8x = (4 + 8)x = 12x \]

The simplified expression is \(12x\).

12x (12 x).

Simplify 9g−7h−6g + 2h . (1 point)
Responses

3g + 5h
3 g plus 5 h

−2gh
negative 2 g h

2gh − 4gh
2 g h minus 4 g h

3g − 5h

To simplify \(9g − 7h − 6g + 2h\), we can combine like terms.

  1. Combine the \(g\) terms: \[ 9g - 6g = (9 - 6)g = 3g \]

  2. Combine the \(h\) terms: \[ -7h + 2h = (-7 + 2)h = -5h \]

Putting it all together, we have: \[ 3g - 5h \]

Among the response options given, the correct one is:

3g − 5h.

−2ab + 14ab + 5
negative 2 a b plus 14 a b plus 5

10a − 2b +5
10 a minus 2 b plus 5

10a + 2b +5

To simplify \(2a − 4b + 7 + 8a + 6b − 2\), we can combine like terms step by step.

  1. Combine the \(a\) terms: \[ 2a + 8a = 10a \]

  2. Combine the \(b\) terms: \[ -4b + 6b = 2b \]

  3. Combine the constant terms: \[ 7 - 2 = 5 \]

Putting it all together, we have: \[ 10a + 2b + 5 \]

Among the response options given, the correct one is:

10a + 2b + 5.

To simplify \(\frac{3}{7}x + \frac{2}{7}x\), you can combine the like terms since they both have \(x\) as a common factor.

  1. Combine the coefficients: \[ \frac{3}{7} + \frac{2}{7} = \frac{3 + 2}{7} = \frac{5}{7} \]

  2. Since both terms also include \(x\), we can write: \[ \frac{5}{7}x \]

Among the response options given, the correct one is:

\(\frac{5}{7}x\) (5/7x).

5/14c + 2/9d

To simplify the expression \( \frac{6}{7}c - \frac{5}{9}d - \frac{1}{2}c + \frac{1}{3}d \), we need to combine like terms.

First, let’s group the \(c\) terms and the \(d\) terms separately:

  1. For the \(c\) terms:

    • Combine \( \frac{6}{7}c \) and \( -\frac{1}{2}c \).
    • To do this, we need a common denominator. The least common denominator (LCD) for 7 and 2 is 14.

    Converting each term: \[ \frac{6}{7}c = \frac{12}{14}c \quad \text{(since } 6 \times 2 = 12\text{)} \] \[ -\frac{1}{2}c = -\frac{7}{14}c \quad \text{(since } 1 \times 7 = 7\text{)} \] Now combine: \[ \frac{12}{14}c - \frac{7}{14}c = \frac{12 - 7}{14}c = \frac{5}{14}c \]

  2. For the \(d\) terms:

    • Combine \( -\frac{5}{9}d \) and \( \frac{1}{3}d \).
    • The least common denominator for 9 and 3 is 9.

    Converting: \[ \frac{1}{3}d = \frac{3}{9}d \quad \text{(since } 1 \times 3 = 3\text{)} \] Now combine: \[ -\frac{5}{9}d + \frac{3}{9}d = \frac{-5 + 3}{9}d = -\frac{2}{9}d \]

Putting it all together, we have: \[ \frac{5}{14}c - \frac{2}{9}d \]

Among the response options given, the correct one is:

\(\frac{5}{14}c - \frac{2}{9}d\) (5/14c − 2/9d).
