Answer 2

Given:

ab – bc, bc – ca, ca – ab, abc

To Find:

Add following

Solution:

An algebraic expression is a way of expressing numbers or variables or just one of them without knowing the exact values. Just like an expression, we can perform normal operations.

For performing operations, we need to identify the like terms and only like terms among them we can perform the specified operations.

The terms are,

Term 1= ab-bc

Term 2= bc-ca

Term 3= ca-ab

Term 4= abc

Now we need to perform the addition operation among these terms,

Addition= ab-bc+bc-ca+ca-ab+abc

First, pair the like terms together,

= (ab-ab)+(bc-bc)+(ca-ca)+abc

=0+0+0+abc

=abc

So the additions of these terms will result in abc.

Hence, the addition of the following results to abc.
