Question

Simplify this expression
3.1 - 3.8n - 2n +6

Answer 1

Answer: 9.1 - 5.8n

Explanation:

All you need to do here is combine like terms.

Lets identify the two sets of like terms:

-3.8n and -2n

AND

3.1 and 6

So, you will add or subtract them as needed.

I will start by combining 3.8n and -2n

= 3.1 -3.8 -2n + 6

= 3.1 + 6 -5.8n

Now combine the 3.1 and 6.

= 9.1 - 5.8n

This is your answer!
