Question

Simplify: (a – 8ab – 5) – (3ab – 4a – 8).

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(a - 8ab - 5) - (3ab - 4a -8)

= a - 8ab - 5 - 3ab + 4a + 8

= 5a - 11ab + 3

Answer 2

$\mathbb\red{ \tiny A \scriptsize \: N \small \:S \large \: W \Large \:E \huge \: R}$

$\rule{300pt}{0.1pt}$

• (a – 8ab – 5) – (3ab – 4a – 8).
• a−8ab−5−3ab+4a+8
• (a+4a)+(−8ab−3ab)+(−5+8)
• 5a−11ab+3
