Simplfy the following expression -

3x + 5x + y+y+y

I think the answer is 8x + 3y

Would I be right?

Thank You

Yes.

Thanks for the help.

You are welcome.

To simplify the expression 3x + 5x + y + y + y, you can combine like terms.

First, let's combine the x terms:
3x + 5x = (3 + 5)x = 8x

Now, let's combine the y terms:
y + y + y = 3y

Putting it all together, the simplified expression is 8x + 3y.

So yes, you are correct! The simplified expression is indeed 8x + 3y.

Well done!
