Six students are working to simplify the expression shown. Drag each student’s answer to a box to show whether it is fully simplified equivalent to the given expression but not fully simplified, or not equivalent to the given expression.

The arrows show the appropriate destination for your dragging.

Combining like terms in the given expression makes it simplify to ...

 (2x -18x) +(14y) +(9 -10) = -16x +14y -1

We are to compare this expression with the offered expressions to see if they simplify to the same thing. We'll examine those left-to-right starting with the top row:

2x -18x +14y -19 = -16x +14y -19 . . . not the same

-2xy -1 . . . not the same

16x +14y -1 . . . not the same

9 -16x +14y -10 = -16x +14y -1 . . . equivalent

-16x +14y -1 . . . equivalent and simplified

2x -18x +14y -1 = -16x +14y -1 . . . equivalent

i would be happy to . most people on would also love to i'm sure. if you just want someone who has done algebra before and want a little more personal relationship than just begging strangers for , i can certainly be of service. i do have college myself so i might not be 24/7.
