Answer:
-2x +18 or 18 - 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
You have 3x and you have -5x so take 5 away from 3 to get -2x
Then you have +8 and +10 so add them together and you get an answer of 18
Put the two answers from the equation together and you have got 18-2x
Hope this helps :)
Start by changing the problem to 3x + 8 + -5x + 10.
Combine like terms → your numbers and your "x" terms.
So 3x + -5x is -2x and 8 + 10 is 18.
So the answer is -2x + 18.
