Full solution

Q. Combine the like terms to create an equivalent expression:\newline4p+(6p)=-4p+(-6p)=\square
  1. Identify like terms: Identify like terms.\newlineIn the expression 4p+(6p)-4p + (-6p), both terms are like terms because they contain the variable pp raised to the same power.
  2. Combine like terms: Combine like terms by adding the coefficients.\newlineTo combine 4p-4p and 6p-6p, add their coefficients: 4-4 and 6-6.\newlineCalculation: 4+(6)=46=10-4 + (-6) = -4 - 6 = -10
  3. Write combined like terms: Write the combined like terms as a single term.\newlineAfter combining the coefficients, the expression becomes 10p-10p.
