Step-by-step solution

10 steps

Part 1

Part 1.1

−2m+5n\text{} -2m + 5n \text{}

  1. Group like terms together.

    (3m−5m)+(−n+6n)(3m - 5m) + (-n + 6n)
  2. Combine the like terms.

    −2m+5n-2m + 5n

    The simplified expression is −2m+5n\boxed{\text{} -2m + 5n \text{}}

Part 1.2

a3b−2ab2\text{} a^3b - 2ab^2 \text{}

  1. Distribute abab to each term inside the parenthesis.

    ab(a2)−ab(2b)ab(a^2) - ab(2b)
  2. Multiply the terms.

    a1+2b−2ab1+1a^{1+2}b - 2ab^{1+1} a3b−2ab2a^3b - 2ab^2

    The simplified expression is a3b−2ab2\boxed{\text{} a^3b - 2ab^2 \text{}}

Part 1.3

2d−2d2\text{} 2d - 2d^2 \text{}

  1. Distribute −d-d to each term inside the parenthesis.

    4d−(d⋅2d+d⋅2)4d - (d \cdot 2d + d \cdot 2) 4d−(2d2+2d)4d - (2d^2 + 2d)
  2. Remove the parenthesis by changing the sign of each term inside.

    4d−2d2−2d4d - 2d^2 - 2d
  3. Combine like terms.

    (4d−2d)−2d2(4d - 2d) - 2d^2 2d−2d22d - 2d^2

    The simplified expression is 2d−2d2\boxed{\text{} 2d - 2d^2 \text{}}

Part 1.4

9b\text{} 9b \text{}

  1. Distribute 3 into the first parenthesis and 6 into the second parenthesis.

    (3⋅b−3⋅2)+(6⋅b+6⋅1)(3 \cdot b - 3 \cdot 2) + (6 \cdot b + 6 \cdot 1) 3b−6+6b+63b - 6 + 6b + 6
  2. Group like terms together.

    (3b+6b)+(−6+6)(3b + 6b) + (-6 + 6)
  3. Combine the like terms.

    9b+09b + 0 9b9b

    The simplified expression is 9b\boxed{\text{} 9b \text{}}
