Full solution

Q. Combine the like terms to create an equivalent expression.\newline4n+6+n2=4n+6+n-2=
  1. Identify like terms: Identify like terms in the expression.\newlineIn the expression 4n+6+n24n+6+n-2, the like terms are 4n4n and nn (both are 'n' terms), and 66 and 2-2 (both are constant terms).
  2. Combine 'n' terms: Combine the like terms that are 'n' terms.\newlineTo combine 4n4n and nn, we add the coefficients (44 and 11) together because nn is the same in both terms.\newline4n+n=4n+1n=(4+1)n=5n4n + n = 4n + 1n = (4 + 1)n = 5n
  3. Combine constant terms: Combine the like terms that are constant terms.\newlineTo combine 66 and 2-2, we add the numbers together.\newline6+(2)=62=46 + (-2) = 6 - 2 = 4
  4. Write equivalent expression: Write the equivalent expression by combining the results from the previous steps.\newlineThe equivalent expression is the sum of the combined nn terms and the combined constant terms.\newline5n+45n + 4
