Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The expression given is xy+5zxy+3zx -y +5z -x - y +3z. . The goal is to simplify this expression.

STEP 2

To simplify the expression, we need to combine like terms. Like terms are terms that contain the same variables raised to the same power.

STEP 3

Identify and combine the 'x' terms.
2x2x2x -2x

STEP 4

Calculate the combined 'x' term.
2x2x=0x2x -2x =0x

STEP 5

Identify and combine the 'y' terms.
2yy-2y - y

STEP 6

Calculate the combined 'y' term.
2yy=3y-2y - y = -3y

STEP 7

Identify and combine the 'z' terms.
5z+3z5z +3z

STEP 8

Calculate the combined 'z' term.
5z+3z=8z5z +3z =8z

STEP 9

Now that we have combined all like terms, we can rewrite the original expression in its simplified form.
x3y+8zx -3y +8z

STEP 10

Since 0x0x is just 00, we can remove it from the expression.
3y+8z-3y +8zThe simplified form of the given expression is 3y+8z-3y +8z.
