Please help! Write the sum, and then write an equivalent expression by collecting like terms and removing parentheses whenever possible.

a. -4 and 4b + 4
b. 3x and 1 -3x

Does this problem have a picture, I just need to make sure I am seeing everything correctly thanks!

Step-by-step explanation:

a. -4 and 4b + 4 = 4b

-4 and 4b + 4 = -4 + (4b + 4) = 4b + (4 - 4) = 4b + 0 = 4b

b. 3x and 1 - 3x = 1

3x and 1 - 3x = 3x + (1 - 3x) = 1 + (3x - 3x) = 1 + 0 = 1

b.-4 units

all you   do is count how many times you move

the answer is b: 18

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem to .

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30

30-12=18

18 is the radius
