Answer:
Assuming you want to simplify the expression, it can be shortened to:
-k² - 2k
Step-by-step explanation:
What you need to do here is called grouping like terms. Like terms can be described as terms that have the same factors. In this case, the factors we're looking at are k and k²:
Given:
k - 3k² -3k + 2k²
We'll rearrange to group like expressions:
= -3k² + 2k² + k -3k
Pull out common factors:
= (-3 + 2)k² + (1 - 3)k
And simplify:
= -k² - 2k
12 is the answer
6(7-5)
42-30
12
Well, considering the amount of gravity placed on a kitten on the 4th of June, the answer would be 42
