Answer:
6 p q + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
3 p q + 7 - 5 p q + 8 - 9 + 8 p q
Grouping like terms, 3 p q + 7 - 5 p q + 8 - 9 + 8 p q = (8 p q + 3 p q - 5 p q) + (7 + 8 - 9):
(8 p q + 3 p q - 5 p q) + (7 + 8 - 9)
p q 8 + p q 3 + p q (-5) = 6 p q:
6 p q + (7 + 8 - 9)
7 + 8 = 15:
6 p q + 15 - 9
15 - 9 = 6:
6 p q + 6
