The correct Answer is:
To add the algebraic expressions \(2a - 3b + 4c\), \(-3a + 2b - 5c\), \(7a - c\), and \(3b + 6c\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down all the expressions We start by writing down all the given expressions: \[ 2a - 3b + 4c, \quad -3a + 2b - 5c, \quad 7a - c, \quad 3b + 6c \] ### Step 2: Combine like terms We will combine the terms with the same variables (like terms). We will group the coefficients of \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\) together. - **For \(a\)**: - From \(2a\), \(-3a\), and \(7a\): \[ 2a - 3a + 7a \] - **For \(b\)**: - From \(-3b\), \(2b\), \(3b\): \[ -3b + 2b + 3b \] - **For \(c\)**: - From \(4c\), \(-5c\), \(-c\), and \(6c\): \[ 4c - 5c - c + 6c \] ### Step 3: Calculate the coefficients Now, we will calculate the coefficients for each variable. - **Calculating \(a\)**: \[ 2 - 3 + 7 = 6 \] So, the coefficient of \(a\) is \(6\). - **Calculating \(b\)**: \[ -3 + 2 + 3 = 2 \] So, the coefficient of \(b\) is \(2\). - **Calculating \(c\)**: \[ 4 - 5 - 1 + 6 = 4 \] So, the coefficient of \(c\) is \(4\). ### Step 4: Write the final expression Now we can write the final expression by combining the coefficients we calculated: \[ 6a + 2b + 4c \] ### Final Answer Thus, the sum of the given algebraic expressions is: \[ \boxed{6a + 2b + 4c} \] ---
