I got 3/8, hope this helps.
You can simplify this expression with PEMDAS (parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction)
Start with the expressions in the parentheses:
4-7=-3
4+7=11
The expression now reads -2(-3)+5(11). Now, simplify the multiplication expressions:
-2*-3=6
5*11=55
The expression is 6+55 which is 61.
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
5x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Collect like terms.
(2x − x + 3x + x) + (5 − 2)
2) Simplify
5 x + 3
2 because once you double it, it becomes 4. Once you add 4, you get 8. When you subtract your number, which is 2, you get 6. Then when you subtract 3, you get 3. 3 is your number (2) plus 1
