Q. Which expression is equivalent to the expression below?\newline7p+5q+p+p+p+p 7 p+5 q+p+p+p+p \newline8p 8 p \newline11p+5q 11 p+5 q \newline3p+5q 3 p+5 q \newline16p 16 p
  1. Combine like terms: Combine like terms by adding the coefficients of the terms with the same variable. \newline7p+p+p+p+p=7p+4p=11p7p + p + p + p + p = 7p + 4p = 11p
  2. Add different variable: Now, add the term with a different variable, which is 5q5q, to the combined like terms.\newline11p+5q=11p+5q11p + 5q = 11p + 5q
