Simplify the expression (h+12) + (p+24) a hp+36 b h+p+26 c hp+288 d 12h+24
The simplified expression is (h + p) + 36, therefore the correct answer is a) hp + 36.
Simplify the expression 9/4 times +4+2x
A: 15x+12
B:5x+4
C:x+4
D: 11/3x +4
To simplify the expression 9/4 times +4+2x, we can first simplify the multiplication:
9/4 * 4 = (9 * 4) / 4 = 9
So the expression becomes:
9 + 2x = 2x + 9
Therefore, the correct answer is C) x + 9
Simplify this expression
(5y-1) + (-2y+4)
Answer choices:
A 3y-5
B 7y+3
C 3y+3
D7y-5
To simplify the expression (5y-1) + (-2y+4), we can combine like terms:
Combine the y terms: 5y - 2y = 3y
Combine the constant terms: -1 + 4 = 3
Therefore, the simplified expression is 3y + 3, so the correct answer is C) 3y+3.
Simplify this expression
(3/4x-1) + 3/4x-2)
Answer choices:
A 1
B 3/4x+1
C -3
D 3/2x-3
To simplify the expression (3/4x-1) + (3/4x-2), we can combine like terms:
Combine the x terms: (3/4x) + (3/4x) = (6/4)x = (3/2)x
Combine the constant terms: -1 + (-2) = -3
Therefore, the simplified expression is (3/2)x - 3, so the correct answer is D) 3/2x-3.
Simplify this expression
7x+3(x-2)-4x+8
Answer choices:
A 6x+14
B 6x+2
C 14x+2
D 14x+14
To simplify the expression 7x+3(x-2)-4x+8, we can apply the distributive property and combine like terms:
First, simplify the expression inside the parentheses: 3(x-2) = 3x - 6
Now, rewrite the expression with the simplified expression: 7x + (3x - 6) - 4x + 8
Next, remove the parentheses and combine like terms: 7x + 3x - 6 - 4x + 8
Combine the x terms: 7x + 3x - 4x = 6x
Combine the constant terms: -6 + 8 = 2
The simplified expression is 6x + 2, so the correct answer is B) 6x + 2.
Simplify this expression
(3x-8)+(2x+5)-(4x-8)
Answer choices:
A 9x-11
B x+5
C 9x+5
D x-11
