Answer:

\Large\boxed{2)~-7x+5y+8}

Explanation:

Question 1: 4x + 7 + 2x

Given expression

4x + 7 + 2x

Move like terms together

= 4x + 2x + 7

= (4x + 2x) + 7

Combine like terms


\Large\boxed{=6x+7}

Question 2: -4x+3y-3x+8+2y

Given expression

-4x + 3y - 3x + 8 + 2y

Move like terms together

= -4x - 3x + 3y + 2y + 8

= (-4x - 3x) + (3y + 2y) + 8

Combine like terms


\Large\boxed{=-7x+5y+8}
