Answer:
8x + 6y
Explanation:
1) Rearrange terms and combine like terms:
12x + 11y - 4x - 5y —> 12x - 4x +11y - 5y
2.Simplify (aka add/subtract like terms)
12x - 4x +11y - 5y
- 12x - 4x = 8x
- 11y - 5y = 6y
= 8x + 6y
Hence, 8x + 6y is your answer :)
8x+6y
Combine like terms:
12x-4x=8x
+11y-5y=6y (because 11 is the bigger number and 5 is smaller, the answer is positive [+])
