The total distance she will need to cut is 62 centimeters. Work shown: 1) simplify original equation- 10x-4+6x+2( 40-4+24+2) 2) solve equation: 36+24+2 3) continue to solve: 38+24= 62. Now you have your answer!!
Well lets solve for both.
6 + 2 + 4x
Combine like terms.
8 + 4x
Now solve the other one.
6 - (2 - 4x)
Distribute.
6 - 2 + 4x
Combine like terms.
4 + 4x.
These equations are not equivalent because instead of adding two, like in the first one, the second problem is subtracting. So you get 8 + 4x and 4 + 4x. I hope this helps love! :)
