Nicole" Well if your gonna' be mean never mind!"
Tiara" OK OK OK I'll help you but like I said. So what are the question."
Nicole"n+3-5n+12 and 2 + 4(3n+8)"
Tiara" Ok well ummm... this is hard"
Nicole" Yeah I know"
Tiara" bye"
Nicole" You said that you would help me with my homework!"
Tiara" Well........ I changed my mind."
Nicole" I hate you"
Tiara" Fine fine fine. so the first question is n+3-5n+12 right?
Nicole" yup."
Tiara" so I guess you group the veriables and then add them so n+-5n is -4n"
Nicole" right then you do this 12+3=15 so the answer is -14n+15"
Tiara" right and the second question is 2+4(3n+8)"
Nicole" yup"
Tiara"first you times the 4 by the 3n thats 12n"
Nicole"then times the 4 by the 8 that is 32"
Nicole"then times the 4 by the 8 that is 32"
Tiara"then 2+32=34"
Nicole" then that is 12n+34"
