Think of PEMDAS, or Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally. Which is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction in that order.
Answer:
-5x^2-2x
Step-by-step explanation:
When distributing, you multiply the term outside the brackets to all the terms in brackets.
If the term outside the bracket is negative, then when distributing/opening the brackets, the signs of the terms changes.
So in this prob. -x would multiply to both +5x and +2
-x*5x+-x*2
∴-5x^2-2x
<em>Answer:</em>
<em>The net speed per 24 hours is 5 - 4 = 1 foot. </em>
