Question

Simplify (5x^2 -3x+3) - (x^2+2x-1).

Answer 1

4x^2-5x+4 is the write answer

just open both brackets than just add and subtract

Answer 2

Eliminate parenthesis by using the distribution property

= 5x² -3x +3 - x² - 2x +1

Group similar terms

= (5-1)*x² + (-3 -2)*x + (3+1)

Then sum everything:

= 4x² -5x +4
