Celia simplified the expression Negative 4 x (1 minus 3) minus (2 x + 2). She checked her work by letting x = 5 in both expressi
ons. Her work for the original expression is shown below. Negative 4 x (1 minus 3) minus (2 x + 2) = negative 4 (5) (1 minus 3) minus (2 (5) + 2) = negative 20 (negative 2) minus 12 = 40 minus 12 = 28.
Celia knows that the simplified expression should also equal 28 when x = 5. Which shows Celia’s simpllifed expression?
–6x – 1
–6x + 2
6x + 1
6x – 2
