(x + 2)(a + b)
so let's group and then factor ab+2a+3b+6= (ab+2a)+(3b+6)= a(b+2)+3(b+2)= (a+3)(b+2) and that is our final answer! Doctor Chuck
2a+7 is a binomial, because it has two terms (2a and 7).

To simplify the expression 2a - 3 + 4b - 2a - b - 3 + 5, we first combine like terms. Combining the terms with 'a', we have 2a - 2a = 0. Combining the terms with 'b', we have 4b - b = 3b. Combining the constants, we have -3 - 3 + 5 = -1. Therefore, the simplified expression is 3b - 1.
2a + 3 - 9b - a - 7 Bring like terms together: = 2a - a - 9b + 3 - 7 Combine like terms: = a - 9b - 4
There are no like terms here.
add like terms: 3a -2a -5b + 6b +3b - 7b = a -3b
a + a + a - 2a = 3a - 2a = a
(5a+8) - (2a+4) =3a +4 To do this, simply subtract like terms. 5a-2a=3a and 8-4=4
2a + 3a = 5a
The expression 16a + 24b can be simplified by factoring out the greatest common factor, which in this case is 8. This results in 8(2a + 3b). Therefore, 16a + 24b is equivalent to 8(2a + 3b).
It is then 2 when all terms are added together
