5b + 11 - 2b = 3b + 11
5+3b? :3
We can combine the like terms. So the b2 can be combined with the 2b2 to give 3b2. Likewise the 3b plus the -5b gives -2b.Therefore, b2 + 3b - 5b + 2b2 = 3b2 - 2b.
6b^2 - 3b / 3b 6b^2 - 1 or ( 6b^2 - 3b) / 3b = 2b - 1 Or (6b^2 - 3b ) / 3b = 3b(2b - ) / 3b = 2b - 1
add like terms: 3a -2a -5b + 6b +3b - 7b = a -3b
5b + 11 - 2b = 3b + 11
8b + 11 - 3b = 2b + 2 5b + 11 = 2b + 2 5b - 2b = 2 - 11 3b = -9 b = -3
-2b + 7 -3b = 2 -2b +7 -3b +2b = 2 + 2b 7 -3b + 3b = 2 + 2b +3b 7-2 = 2-2 + 2b + 3b 5 = 5b 1 = b
They are like terms and can be added simply as 5b
5b plus 5-3b-7 is 2b-2.
3a - 2b
5b - 3 - 2b = 6b - 3 3b - 3 = 6b - 3 3b - 6b = 3 - 3 b = 0
5+3b? :3
We can combine the like terms. So the b2 can be combined with the 2b2 to give 3b2. Likewise the 3b plus the -5b gives -2b.Therefore, b2 + 3b - 5b + 2b2 = 3b2 - 2b.
3a - 2b
It is an expression that can be simplified to: 3a-2b+c
Amazing! Exactly the same question was posted here on WikiAnswerslast September 23. What an incredible coincidence!8b + 11 - 3b = 2b + 2That 8b on the left side can be combined with the -3b to make 5b .5b + 11 = 2b + 2Subtract 2b from each side:3b + 11 = 2Subtract 11 from each side:3b = -9Divide each side by 3:b = -3(That's the same answer they got last September.)
