To simplify the expression 79h + 10 − 49h − 3, combine like terms:
79h - 49h is equal to 30h.
10 - 3 is equal to 7.
The simplified expression is 30h + 7.
Now, let's check the provided responses to identify the correct simplification.
The first and fourth responses include incorrect terms (i.e., the squared term "h2" and a misunderstanding of the coefficients), so they can be eliminated right away.
The second and third responses appear to attempt simplifying fractions, but this is not applicable to our expression as there are no fractions involved.
Considering the correct simplification: 30h + 7 is not directly offered in any of the provided options, but it appears there might be a typo because the simplest equivalent expression to our calculation would be 30h + 7. Since none of the responses matches this simplification, please ensure that there are no errors in the provided options or the initial problem statement. If the provided responses are fixed and meant to represent the simplification of 79h + 10 − 49h − 3, then the correct response would be one that simplifies to 30h + 7.
