2a-3+4b-2a-b-2a-b-3+5 Can be simplified to: 3b-1
a-b+a-b+2b+a = 4a
2a+6b
2a + 2b = 160 But b = a + 40 so 2a + 2(a + 40) = 160 ie 2a + 2a + 80 = 160 or 4a = 80 ie a = 20 Then b = a + 40 gives b = 20 + 40 = 60 Solution: a = 20, b = 60
The expression is: (4a+b)/(2a-5b)

2a-3+4b-2a-b-2a-b-3+5 Can be simplified to: 3b-1
2a-3+4b-2a-b-3+5=3b-1
It is 2a-b simplified
a-b+a-b+2b+a = 4a
(2a + b)(a + 3b)
2A plus 3B times 2A - 3B = 4A2 - 9B2; this is an example of the general formula (a + b)(a - b) = a2 - b2.
a= (+a) or a= (-) b= 2a b= 2a c= (-a) c= (+a)
2a+6b
2(a+b) is 2a plus 2b in factored form.
If ba = 2a + b , then find 23 + 32 +1
4ac + 2ad + 2bc +bd = 2a*(2c + d) + b*(2c + d) = (2c + d)*(2a + b)
