A sub shop sells a meal that includes an Italian sub for $6 and chips for $2. If a customer purchases more than three meals, he or she received a $5 discount. The expression 6m + 2m -5 shows the cost in dollars of the customers order from m meals, where m is greater than 3. Simplift the expression by combining like terms.

When collecting like terms you are adding or subtracting 2 "things" that have the same variable (letter).
