Answer 1

Answer: 9.6 + 1.3n

Explanation:

3.4n + 9.6 - 2.1n

Combine like terms which are 3.4n and 2.1n

You do 3.4n - 2.1n = 1.3n

Now it's 9.6 + 1.3n

You would think to add 9.6 and 1.3n. No.

Leave it like that.

Answer: 9.6 + 1.3n

Answer 2

1.3n + 9.6

Explanation:

We can first gather the terms with the same variable to simplify the expression and combine like terms. In this case, we have 3.4n and -2.1n, which have the variable n. So, we can combine these terms by subtracting the coefficient of n:

3.4n - 2.1n = 1.3n

Next, we can add the constant terms 9.6:

1.3n + 9.6

So the simplified expression with combining like terms is 1.3n + 9.6. This means that the original expression 3.4n + 9.6 - 2.1n is equivalent to 1.3n + 9.6 after combining the terms with the same variable.
