Simply the Expression:

5a + 3b - 3a + 4b + 7c

1 answer

To simplify the expression \(5a + 3b - 3a + 4b + 7c\), combine like terms:

  1. For the \(a\) terms: \(5a - 3a = 2a\)

  2. For the \(b\) terms: \(3b + 4b = 7b\)

  3. The \(c\) term remains the same since there are no other \(c\) terms: \(7c\)

Putting it all together, the simplified expression is:

\[ 2a + 7b + 7c \]
