B. The simplified form of the expression is 5x + 9.
C. 5x and 2x are like terms.
D. The simplified form of the expression is 14x.


Sagot :

its C because both 5x and 2x have the same x at the end and their both considered like terms. so the answer would be C and if it was to be solved 5x+2x= 7x and 7+7x would be the final answer. since the 7 with no x has no x, it wouldnt have to be solved or simplified
