Answer

21a - 9ab - 2b

Explanation

The question wants us to simplify the expression given

17a - 13ab + 4a - 2b + 4ab

The first step is to collect like terms and bring the terms with the same coefficient together

17a - 13ab + 4a - 2b + 4ab

= 17a + 4a - 13ab + 4ab - 2b

= 21a - 9ab - 2b

This cannot be simplified further. So, the simplified solution is

21a - 9ab - 2b

Hope this Helps!!!
