Answer:

[tex]7a+3b+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]6a+3b+a+2[/tex]

Use commutative property of addition [tex]x+y=y+x[/tex]

[tex]6a+3b+a+2=6a+(a+3b)+2[/tex]

use associative property of addition [tex]x+(y+2)=(x+y)+2[/tex]

[tex]6a+(a+3b)+2=(6a+a)+3b+2\\=7a+3b+2[/tex]

Hence [tex]6a+3b+a+2=7a+3b+2[/tex]
