At a guess I would say the answer is 12y - 4y^2 = 4y(3 - y).

It means to rewrite the expression so that it is in its simplest form. You can do this by combining like terms. For example: The equation 2x + 3x = 5 can be simplified to 5x = 5 by combining the "x's".
If you have a expression that goes; 2x + 5x etc etc Simplifying the like terms is 7x 2x and 5x are like terms, but 2y and 2x are not. The variable needs to be the same.
To simplify the expression 8x - 8 - 4x - 3 - 3x, first combine like terms. Start by combining the x terms: 8x - 4x - 3x = x. Then, combine the constant terms: -8 - 3 = -11. Therefore, the simplified expression is x - 11.
That refers to terms that have exactly the same combination of variables. For example, in 5xy + x2 - 3xy, the first and last term have the same variables, so they are similar. You can simplify an expression by combining such terms.
To simplify the expression 5x - 6y - 2x - y, you first combine like terms by adding or subtracting coefficients of the same variables. In this case, combining like terms gives you 3x - 7y. So, the simplified form of the expression is 3x - 7y.
Like Terms and Variables
When you have an expression you have to simplify by eliminating all grouping symbols and combining like terms.
3b-4-6b-5
There are only the two terms, so 8xy
You add (or subtract) like terms. This will reduce the number of terms in the expression and that is the extent of simplification that you can achieve using this process.

To simplify the expression 8x - 8 - 4x - 3 - 3x, first combine like terms. Start by combining the x terms: 8x - 4x - 3x = x. Then, combine the constant terms: -8 - 3 = -11. Therefore, the simplified expression is x - 11.
The given expression is 5x + 2y + 19x - 2y - 1. To simplify this expression, we combine like terms. Combining the x terms gives us 24x (5x + 19x) and combining the y terms gives us 0y (2y - 2y). Therefore, the simplified expression is 24x - 1.
