3w – 10w
(1 point)
• 13w
• –7w
• –7
• 7w
well, 3-10 = -7, so ...
7w
To simplify the expression 3w - 10w, we combine the terms with the same variable (w).
3w - 10w is equal to (3 - 10)w.
Simplifying further, (3 - 10) is equal to -7.
Therefore, the simplified expression is -7w.
So, the correct answer is -7w.
To simplify the expression 3w - 10w, we need to combine the like terms.
The term 3w represents 3 times the variable w, and the term -10w represents negative 10 times the variable w.
Since both terms have the same variable w, we can combine them by subtracting the coefficient (the number in front of w).
3w - 10w = (3 - 10)w
This simplifies to -7w.
Therefore, the simplified expression is -7w.
