Start by combining LIKE-TERMS. 13b AND 23 are LIKE-TERMS because they have the same variable (B) and numbers. Remember PEMDAS OR Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally. (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction). There is also FOIL (First, Inside, Outside, Last). Because we will start with Parenthesis(Use the FOIL method because the 56 is part of the parentheses) first, (-56 x b[first part of the set]) = -56b THEN (-56 x [+ {always carry the sign, this shows that it is positive}]1) = -56
Now we have 13b+23b -56b-56 =36b -56b -56 = -20b - 56 This is your final equation because THESE ARE NOT LIKE-TERMS, therefore, they CANNOT be combined
Well i think that if there is 25 ball there is more likely to be odd cause there is not 26 balls to make even and odds have the same amount of odd and even balls so there is one more odd than there is even
