Answer: the answer would be 2x+14y+16
Explanation:
(8y-10x+18)+(6y+12x-2) we see like terms here such as 8y and 6y, -10x with 12x and final set of like terms is 18 and -2
with addition we can simply combine them such as:
12x-10x= 2x
8y+6y=14y
18-2=16
(always put x then y and then the constant(which is the number without a variable)
therfor the answer is 2x+14y+16
