Clara simplifies ( 8 b − 4 r ) − ( 2 b − r ) and says the result is 6 b − 5 r . What error did Clara make? Clara incorrectly combined the b coefficients. The correctly simplified expression is 10 b − 5 r . Clara incorrectly combined the , b, coefficients. , The correctly simplified expression is , , 10 b minus 5 r, . Clara incorrectly combined the r coefficients. The correctly simplified expression is 6 b − 3 r . Clara incorrectly combined the , r, coefficients. , The correctly simplified expression is , , 6 b minus 3 r, . Clara incorrectly combined the r coefficients. The correctly simplified expression is 6 b + 5 r . Clara incorrectly combined the , r, coefficients. , The correctly simplified expression is 6 b plus 5 r, . Clara incorrectly combined the b coefficients. The correctly simplified expression is − 10 b − 5 r . Clara incorrectly combined the , b, coefficients. , The correctly simplified expression is negative 10 b minus 5 r, .
