Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to combine like terms, you have to isolate x and y from one side of the equation.

First, thing you do is remove parentheses.

Solve.

Then, you combine like terms.

Add/subtract the numbers from left to right.

-8z+3.5z=-4.5z

Rewrite the problem down.

Solve.

4.5-1.5=3

  • Therefore, the correct answer is 7y+3-4.5z.

I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
