Simplify (3x − 5) − (4x + 6).
1 answer:
(3x − 5) − (4x + 6)
Pretend that there is a 1 in front of the first bracket.
Pretend that there is a -1 in front of the second bracket.
Multiply the first bracket by 1
(1)(3x)=3x, (1)(-5)=-5
Multiply the second bracket by -1
(-1)(4)=-4, (-1)(6)=-6
3x-5-4x-6
3x-4x-5-6 ( combine like terms)
-x-11
Answer: -x-11 or -11-x

Your answer is 2.66666667
4 = 12
10 = 18
22 = 30
54 = 62
62 = 70
100 = 108
4. Then you have x^2+4x+4 which gives you (x+2)(x+2) when you factor it.
