Simplify the expression-
4+ -9r–1

-9r+3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to simplify this expression, all you have to do is combine the like terms. However, because there is an addition and a subtraction sign next to each other, we have to multiply them together to find which sign will stay.

Positive x Positive = Positive

Positive x Negative = Negative   <---

Negative x Negative = Positive

Because we know that multiplying a negative sign by a positive sign will give us negative, we have to keep the subtraction sign and remove the addition sign. This leaves us with 4-9r-1. All that is left to do is simplify.

Combine the like terms: 4-1 = 3

-9r+3
