We need to combine like terms, so 4x-3x, and 8y+2y. x+10y is it simplified

Answer:

x + 10y

Explanation:

To simplify this question, we need to collect like terms. For terms to be considered like terms, they have to have identical variables with identical exponents. Coefficients may be different. So 4x and 3x are like terms. 8y and 2y are also like terms.

4x + 8y - 3x + 2y = x + 10y
