On solving 2p - 3q - 4r + 6r - 2q + p, answer will be

  • A.8q -5r
  • B.10p + 3q - 5r
  • C.3p - 5q + 2r
  • D.7p + 5r

Answer: C

Collect like terms.

\[ 2p + p = 3p \]

\[ -3q - 2q = -5q \]

\[ -4r + 6r = 2r \]

\[ \therefore\ 3p - 5q + 2r \]

Only terms in the same variable may be combined; \( p \), \( q \) and \( r \) stay separate.
