I could easily simplify this problem using the steps they show in my algebra book, but how would YOU guys simplify it? I'm just really looking for some alternate solutions here.
-2z + 3 + 4z -17 + 20
How do they say to do it in the book o.o
I just add -2z and 4z together to get 2z, then 3 - 17 + 20 to get 6.
2z + 6
