Answer:


- y + - 2q

How to do:

1. Find all numbers that have a y after them, then you see

-3y,-3y,5y you would add the 2 ys with a minus and then you do


- 6y - 5y

That leaves you with - y

2. Find the numbers that have q after them, you see 4q,-6q

You do


- 6q - 4q

That leaves you with - y and - 2q,the sign that is at the start is an addition so it's - y - (-2q)
