To get what is equivalent to 7 a plus 4b plus three you have to equate them to an equal sign.

3a + 4b - 5 - 1a + 7b + 3 - 1b 2a + 10b - 5 + 3 2a + 10b - 2
4b + 3 = 15 First, Subtract 3 from both sides. -3 -3 4b = 12 Then, divide by 4 to get b by itself. 4 4 b = 3
3b -1
In its most simplified form: = 12abc + 8bc - 20ab = 4b(3ac + 2c - 5a) = 4b[(c + 5/3)(3a + 2) - 10/3]
It looks like a meaningless collection of letter and numbers. There is no mathematical operator between 4b and 3, there is no sign of equality of or inequality.
