Q. Combine the like terms to create an equivalent expression.5t+10−4−t=
Identify Like Terms: First, identify the like terms in the expression. The like terms are those that contain the same variable or are constants (numbers without variables).In the expression 5t+10−4−t, the like terms are 5t and −t (both have the variable t), and 10 and −4 (both are constants).
Combine Variable Terms: Combine the like terms with the variable t: 5t and −t.5t−t=5t−1t=(5−1)t=4t
Combine Constant Terms: Combine the constant terms: 10 and −4. 10−4=6
Write Combined Expression: Now, write the combined expression using the results from the previous steps.The equivalent expression is 4t+6.
