Which facts could be applied to simplify this expression? Select three options.

(Negative 5 x minus 3 y) minus (negative x minus 3 z)
To subtract like terms, subtract the coefficients, not the variables.
Like terms are terms that contain the same variable, raised to the same power.
The simplified expression is Negative 6 x minus 3 y + 3 z.
The simplified expression is Negative 4 x minus 3 y + 3 z.
Negative (negative x) is equivalent to Negative x, so Negative 5 x minus x = negative 6 x.

A, B, and D

Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract like terms, you're supposed to subtract the coefficients, so Option 1 is correct. The statement like terms are terms that contain the same variable, raised to the same power, is true, so Option 2 is correct. The simplified expression is -4 - 3y + 3z, so Option 3 is wrong and Option 4 is correct. Option 5, -(-x) = -x is wrong, so Option 5 is not correct. Therefore, the answers are Options 1, 2, and 4 (or A, B, and D).

Hope this helps! I got it right on Edgen.
