Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract 2x from 3x, so you have just x( you don't need the one in front of it)

So the answer would be ( x-4)

Hope that this helps you and have a great day :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No, this expression is not in simplest form

3x +2x -4

We still have like terms that can be combined.

The like terms in this case are the terms with variables, 3x and 2x

They can be added together

(3x+2x)-4

5x-4

5x-4 is the expression in simplest form

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$
