of the two rectangles connected to it.
Complete the diagram, writing the expressions in their simplified form.
4x + 3y- rectangle
5x + 7y
x + 4y
4x + 5y
2x - y

Answer 1

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

The circle by your left:

(4x + 3y) + (2x - y)

Distribute +1

4x + 3y + 2x - y

Add like terms together

6x + 2y

The rectangle by at the bottom right:

(4x + 5y) - (x + 4y)

Distribute -1

4x + 5y - x - 4y

Group like terms

4x - x + 5y - 4y

3x + y

The circle at the bottom middle:

(2x - y) + (3x + y)

Distribute +1

2x - y + 3x + y

Group like terms

2x + 3x - y + y

5x
