a)
\(\begin{array}{l}\left( {x - y} \right) + \left( {y - z} \right) + \left( {z - x} \right)\\ = x - y + y - z + z - x\\ = \left( {x - x} \right) + \left( { - y + y} \right) + \left( { - z + z} \right)\\ = 0\end{array}\)
b)
\(\begin{array}{l}\left( {2x - 3y} \right) + \left( {2y - 3z} \right) + \left( {2z - 3x} \right)\\ = 2x - 3y + 2y - 3z + 2z - 3x\\ = \left( {2x - 3x} \right) + \left( { - 3y + 2y} \right) + \left( { - 3z + 2z} \right)\\ = - x - y - z\end{array}\)
