Math Combine Like Terms and Distributive Property Combine like terms to simplify each expression.

Combine like terms to simplify each expression.  

1) -3x + 7x

 2) 5a + 5 – 3a + 10

 3) -2p – 4p + 8 – c 

 4) 9y + 4z – 3x

 5) 2y – 5y + 8c – 2c 

6) 7a – 8b + 3c – 4c + 6a  

Use Distributive Property to simplify each expression.  

7) 4(-5 + 2a) 8) -8(w + 6) 9) -(a – 3b) 10) -7(5y – 3z) 11) 11(-4a - 3) 12) x(4 + 3y)  

First use Distributive Property, then combine like terms to simplify each expression. 13) 5(2c + 3) + 7 14) x + 4(3x + 7) 15) -3a – (-5 + 4a) 

EXTRA PRACTICE  

Combine like terms to simplify each expression.  

1) 8x – 17x 2) -8y + 3 – 7y + 14 3) -8a – 3a + 18 – 6c 4) 9a + 3b – 3c 5) 5x – y + 3x – 12y 6) 3x – 8x + y – 4z + 10y  

Use Distribu7ve Property to simplify each expression.  

7) 9(-4 + 4b) 8) -7(9 + x) 9) -(4x – 3y) 10) -3(4a – 3a) 11) 12(-4x - 5) 12) x(7 + 8z)  

First use Distributive Property, then combine like terms to simplify each expression. 13) 4(2a + 4) + 9 14) x + 7(3x + 6) 15) -8a – (-4 + 6a)
