Hey!

-----------------------------------------------------

The x-term has a coefficient of 2: 2x

The z-term has a coefficient of -1: -z

Together: 2x - z

The expression has a constant less than zero = 5 + 2z² (When it says a constant term less than zero you can assume that it can be any number being subtract by z).

Final Answer: 2x - z - 5 + 2z²

-----------------------------------------------------

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
