5a + 4b - 3a =(5a - 3a) + 4b =2a + 4b =2 (a + 2b)
Gathering like terms together, this is equal to 5a + 3b + 7c.
4a + 3c - 2b - c + a - b = 5a - 3b + 2c
3a + 2b is an expression in algebra. If you make 3a + 2b equal to something then you can find the values of "a" and "b" Lets say you make 3a + 2b equal to 23 3a + 2b = 23 Now find "a" and "b" to make this equation true... 3(5) + 2(4) = 23 15 + 8 = 23 23 = 23 Correct So in this case a=5 and b=4
To factor the expression 3ab + 3ac + 2b^2 + 2bc, we first look for common factors among the terms. We can factor out a 3a from the first two terms, and a 2 from the last two terms. This gives us 3a(b + c) + 2(b^2 + bc). Next, we notice that we can factor out a b from the second term in the second parenthesis, giving us the final factored form: 3a(b + c) + 2b(b + c).
