(y+7)+(2y-5) simplify this expression

3y + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

So here's what we know...

(y + 7) + (2y - 5)

We have 2 parts of this expression...

(y + 7) y and 7

and

(2y - 5) 2y and -5

Let's Solve!

First we are going to combine like terms

(y + 7) + (2y - 5)

Are like terms are y and 2y and 7 and -5.

y + 2y = 3y and 7 - 5 = 2

Now, we have to turn our terms back into an expression:

3y + 2
