Answer:
3y + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
So here's what we know...
(y + 7) + (2y - 5)
We have 2 parts of this expression...
(y + 7) y and 7
and
(2y - 5) 2y and -5
Let's Solve!
First we are going to combine like terms
(y + 7) + (2y - 5)
Are like terms are y and 2y and 7 and -5.
y + 2y = 3y and 7 - 5 = 2
Now, we have to turn our terms back into an expression:
3y + 2
Hope this Helps! :)
