Simplify:

Thank you!!! :)
I submited this just before but I forgot to put 6a I just put a. Sorry!!! Answer by nerdybill(7384) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2a+5a-(6a+8)
start by distributing the negative sign to each term inside the parenthesis:
2a+5a-6a-8
group like-terms (all the 'a' terms):
(2a+5a-6a)-8
(7a-6a)-8
(1a)-8
(a)-8
a-8
