​

Answer 1

18n+p-6

Explanation:

you combine 12 and 6, then put the exponents in order

Answer 2

Hey there!

Like terms are "from the same family"

Let me clarify.

For example. we have an expression "2t+12h-6h"

In this case, 12h and -6h are like terms and 2t and 12h are not like terms.

Here's another example:

r+a-y+4+9-1

The like terms are:

4, 9, and -1

Now that we know what like terms are, let's identify the like terms in the given expression.

The expression is:

`\bold{12n-6+p+6n}`

What are the like terms?

That's right, 12n and 6n:

`\bold{12n+6n-6+p}`

`\bold{18n-6+p}`

Hence, the answer is

`\boxed{\boxed{\bold{18n-6+p}}}`

Hope everything is clear.

Let me know if you have any other questions; if so, please comment.
