Answer:
1. 8y - 9y = -1y
( 8 - 9 = -1)
3. <u>8a</u> - 6 <u>+a</u> - 1
( i have showed the like terms here)
8a - 1a= 7a
-6 - 1 = -7
7a - 7
5. -x - 2 + 15x
( i have showed the like terms here)
-x + 15x = 14x
(x = 1)
14x + 2
7.<u> 8d</u> - 4 <u>- d</u> - 2
( i have showed the like terms here)
8d - d = 7d
-4 -2 = -6
7d - 6
8. 9a <u>+ 8</u> - 2a<u> - 3</u> - 5a
( i have showed the like terms here)
9a - 2a - 5a = 2a
8 - 3= 5
2a + 5
