Full solution

Q. Combine the like terms to create an equivalent expression:\newline2s+(4s)=02s+(-4s)=\boxed{\phantom{0}}
  1. Identify like terms: Identify like terms in the expression. In this case, 2s2s and 4s-4s are like terms because they both contain the variable ss.
  2. Combine like terms: Combine the like terms by adding their coefficients. The coefficients are 22 and 4-4. So, 2+(4)=22 + (-4) = -2.
  3. Write simplified expression: Write the simplified expression using the combined coefficient with the variable ss. The simplified expression is 2s-2s.
