5b^2-5b-8b+4+24b^2-1-13b^2-b

simplify the expression by combining like terms. write the terms from the highest to the lowest power of the varible

The answer would be 16b^2 - 14b + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we simply need to group the terms by their variable values. We will start with the b^2 terms.

5b^2 + 24b^2 - 13b^2 = 16b^2

Now we can use all of the b terms.

-5b - 8b - b = - 14b

And finally, we'll do all the constants.

4 - 1 = 3

Using all three of these together will give us the simplified form.
