you have to combine
6a and -4a
6 - 4 = 2
so then 2a
2a and your left with +2
so then your answer is
2a+2
- Anonymous1 decade ago
6a and 4a both have the same term "a" so we have 6a -4a so we have 6-4=2 so
6a-4a=2a
and then we bring back the 2 so we have for a final answer
2a+2

The correct answer is 2a+2!
Since the +2 does not have the "a" it is not a like term, so you leave it alone.

Since there is no equal sign, it can't be solved, only simplified:
6a - 4a + 2
2a + 2
2(a + 1)

6a^2+4a+5+3a^2+7a-2 6a^2+4a+5+3a^2+7a-2 9a^2+lla+3 its suitable---undergo in ideas--u can basically upload the numbers that have a similar words---so u cant do 5^s +5s if the 6a had parenthesis---(6a)^2, it would B (6a)(6a)=36a^2
