While adding such algebraic expressions, we combine the like terms which contains the same variables infact same degree of variables.

Given expression:

  • 8r + 12p - 3p

Here 12p and 3p are like terms because they are having same variable that is p. So, we can compute any operation like hear it's subtraction.

➝ 8r + (12p - 3p)

➝ 8r + 9p

Now no more like terms are there, So the final answer is 8r + 9p. And we are done!

Answer:

8r + 9p

Explanation:

Combine like terms. Like terms are terms with the same variables as well as the same amount of said variable.

In this case, combine 12p with -3p

8r + 12p - 3p

8r + (12p - 3p)

8r + 9p

8r + 9p is your answer.
