The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will find the expressions for (i) \( a + b - c \) and (ii) \( 2a - 3b + 4c \) step by step. ### Given: - \( a = 3x - 5y \) - \( b = 6x + 3y \) - \( c = 2y - 4x \) ### (i) Finding \( a + b - c \) 1. **Write the expression**: \[ a + b - c = (3x - 5y) + (6x + 3y) - (2y - 4x) \] 2. **Distribute the negative sign**: \[ = 3x - 5y + 6x + 3y - 2y + 4x \] 3. **Combine like terms**: - Combine the \( x \) terms: \( 3x + 6x + 4x = 13x \) - Combine the \( y \) terms: \( -5y + 3y - 2y = -4y \) 4. **Final result**: \[ a + b - c = 13x - 4y \] ### (ii) Finding \( 2a - 3b + 4c \) 1. **Write the expression**: \[ 2a - 3b + 4c = 2(3x - 5y) - 3(6x + 3y) + 4(2y - 4x) \] 2. **Distribute the coefficients**: \[ = (6x - 10y) - (18x + 9y) + (8y - 16x) \] 3. **Combine like terms**: - Combine the \( x \) terms: \( 6x - 18x - 16x = -28x \) - Combine the \( y \) terms: \( -10y - 9y + 8y = -11y \) 4. **Final result**: \[ 2a - 3b + 4c = -28x - 11y \] ### Summary of Results: - (i) \( a + b - c = 13x - 4y \) - (ii) \( 2a - 3b + 4c = -28x - 11y \)
