how would you simplify 8a-4+8-2a?
i think Ms. Sue posted below about that
How do u find a pattern in the coordinates of the points. Then write the coordinates of another point in the pattern.
The answer is 6a to the second power plus 4
sorry i cant figure out the other part its been a while sense I have done it. Good luck
8a-4+8-2a
Combine like terms to simplify.
8a-2a-4+8 = 6a+4
I don't know how Titi got "to the second power."
I hope this helps a little more. Thanks for asking.
To simplify the expression 8a - 4 + 8 - 2a, we can combine like terms. Like terms have the same variable raised to the same exponent. In this case, our like terms are the ones with 'a' and the ones without 'a'.
The original expression is: 8a - 4 + 8 - 2a.
First, let's combine the terms with 'a': 8a - 2a = 6a.
Next, let's combine the terms without 'a': -4 + 8 = 4.
So, the simplified expression is 6a + 4.
