Combine like terms.
Like terms have the same variables.
4.2v and -6.5v are like terms. They can be combined.

4.2v - 5 - 6.5v =

= 4.2v - 6.5v - 5

= -2.3v - 5

Following are the calculation to simplify the expression:

Given:

[tex]\bold{4.2 v-5-6.5v}[/tex]

To find:

simplify the expression=?

Solution:

[tex]\to \bold{4.2 v-5-6.5v}[/tex]

Combine the similar terms:

[tex]\to \bold{4.2 v-6.5v-5}\\\\\to \bold{-2.3 v-5}\\\\\to \bold{-(2.3 v+5)}\\\\[/tex]

Therefore, the final answer is "[tex]\bold{-(2.3 v+5)}[/tex]".
