Question

What is 42 + 7x + 12x – 8 i really need help

Answer 1

36+19x

Explanation:

Ok, first, combine like terms, so the two values with X.

42 + 7x + 12x – 8

42 +19x – 8

Now, we combine the two values that have no X

42+19x– 8 Imagine there is a plus sign in front of the 42 because it's positive.

So 42-8=36

36+19x

That's your solution, that's the most this can be simplified.

Answer 2

19x+34

Solution,

42+7x+12x-8

Combine like terms,

= 7x+12x+42-8

Simplify

=19x+34

hope it helps

Good luck on your assignment
