For this case we must simplify the following expression:


-4r-2r + 5

We add similar terms taking into account that:

  • Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.
  • Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

So:


-6r + 5

Thus, the simplified expression is:


-6r + 5

Answer:


-6r + 5
