Question

Simplify the expression by combining like terms.
22+5m-4m+7n8

Answer 1

7n +m +14

Explanation:

22 +5m -4m +7n -8

=7n +5m -4m +22 -8

=7n +m +14

Answer 2

Second Option, m+7n+30

Explanation:

First I'd combine the m terms

22+5m-4m+7n-8

5m-4m

=1m

22+1m+7n+8

Now the numbers with no variable

22+1m+7n+8

22 + 8

=30

m+7n+30 is our final answer
