Question

Combine the like terms to create an equivalent expression. 4t - t + 2 (I think its 2 but im really stupid lol and its probaly not heehee)

Answer 1

3t +2

Explanation:

Answer 2

3t +2

Explanation:

In order to combine the like terms, you look at the constants and the variables. A variable has a letter in it. When looking at this expression, you find that there are two variables, 4t and -t. You then simplify these variables, getting 3t because it is 4t - t. Now, there is a two left, and since that ISN'T a variable, and is a constant, we can't do anything with it because we cannot combine it with anything else in the expression. Your guess was partially right ;)

Hope this helped!
