If you would like to simplify <span>(-2)-3 -8 - 8 and 6x - 2, you can do this using the following steps:
</span><span>(-2)-3 -8 - 8 = - 2 - 3 - 8 - 8 = - 5 - 8 - 8 = - 13 - 8 = - 21
6x - 2 = 2 * (3x - 1)
The correct result would be - 21 and </span><span>2 * (3x - 1).</span>
10 is the missing number.
3: 8h+24 4: 6h+21 5: 15x+45y 6: 44h+12g
7: 7jk first box 12jm second box. 8: 9ab+13a
Basically you just want to multiply the number outside the parentheses to each number inside them.
Well, you're given that
. I think the extra information is extraneous, unless there's something more that you forgot to add.
Hope I could be of some assistance. :)
