3a+8b-5c 6a- 9b+4c -7a+b+2chow do i solve this by solving using addition operation

2a+c

Step-by-step explanation: You add all variables that are positive then you subtract by negatives or vice versa. Add 3a+6a-7a yes subtract the 7a which gets you 2a. Add 8b+b-9b, you get 9b-9b which is 0 so you don’t need b in the problem anymore. -5a+4c+2c then you get c, because it is 1 c. So your answer is 2a+c. :P Hope this helped.

Don't be worried friend :)

-(y + 2) + 8 = 3

=> -(y + 2) = -5

=> y + 2 = 5

=> y = 3
