The correct Answer is:
To add the algebraic expressions \(3a - 4b + 4c\), \(2a + 3b - 8c\), and \(a - 6b + c\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the expressions We have three expressions: 1. \(3a - 4b + 4c\) 2. \(2a + 3b - 8c\) 3. \(a - 6b + c\) ### Step 2: Group like terms We will group the terms based on their variables: - **Terms with \(a\)**: \(3a\), \(2a\), and \(a\) - **Terms with \(b\)**: \(-4b\), \(3b\), and \(-6b\) - **Terms with \(c\)**: \(4c\), \(-8c\), and \(c\) ### Step 3: Add the coefficients of \(a\) Now, we will add the coefficients of \(a\): \[ 3a + 2a + 1a = (3 + 2 + 1)a = 6a \] ### Step 4: Add the coefficients of \(b\) Next, we will add the coefficients of \(b\): \[ -4b + 3b - 6b = (-4 + 3 - 6)b = -7b \] ### Step 5: Add the coefficients of \(c\) Finally, we will add the coefficients of \(c\): \[ 4c - 8c + 1c = (4 - 8 + 1)c = -3c \] ### Step 6: Combine all the results Now, we combine all the results from the previous steps: \[ 6a - 7b - 3c \] ### Final Answer The sum of the given algebraic expressions is: \[ \boxed{6a - 7b - 3c} \] ---
