a) -2x + 12 - 3x + 4 - 3y to simplify, first you can draw your lines in between the numbers -2xI + 12I - 3xI + 4 I- 3y then you combine like terms -2x-3x=-5x 12-4=7 so the new problem is -5x+7-3y b) -2x + 3y, x=-2 y = -4 to evaluate first you need to find the varibles -2**x** + 3**y**, x=-2 y = -4 then you need to find where it says what they mean -2x + 3y, **x** =-2 y= -4 then you need to substitute the variable for the given number -2***2** + 3***-4** then you can simplify -2*2=-4 3*-4=-12 then your new problem is -4+-12 then you can solve that -4+-12=-16
