Question 402258: 3)can you show me the steps on how to simplify
1.a+(3a-2b)-(4a-3b)
2.4x-(6x-2y)+(2x-7y)
3.7a+[4a-6b-(8a+2b)]
4.3x+[2x+3y-(4x-7y)]
5.(2a-5)+(3a-1)-(4a+2)
6.(3y-2)-(6y+4)+(8y+2)

1)
a+(3a-2b)-(4a-3b)
a+3a-2b-4a+3b
=b
a's cancil
3)
7a+[4a-6b-(8a+2b)]
7a+[4a-6b-8a-2b]
7a-3a-8b
=4a-8b
you try the others
follow the order of operations
