Q:

23 + 8m + 4n - 5m - 27​

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:[tex]-4 + 3m + 4n[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:In this question, you are combining like terms, meaning doing equations to numbers that fit with only each other.So we should start on the number without variables:23 and 27Match them up together and you should find your first equation:23 - 7==> -4So we should have  -4  +  8m  +  4n  -  5mNow we should combine the numbers with the variable of m:8m and 5mMatch them up together and you should find your first equation:8m - 5m==> 3mSo we should now have -4  + 3m  + 4nSince there are no other variables of n, we are all done:-4  + 3m  + 4n  is  your  final  answer
