Question

Simplify the expression: 6+p–8+7

Answer 1

The answer is =5+p.

Answer 2

p+5

Explanation:

I feel as if I might be oversimplifying my answer, so I may be wrong. But, I simply took the time to add like terms! The variable- p- will stand alone because it does not have a given value. The 6, 7, and -8 can be added together, though! Hence my +5. I hope this helped! :)
