Question

(8x+ 6) - (x + 4) Help

Answer 1

ok do you know your math just ask. its 7x+2 I think

Answer 2

`(8x+6)-(x+4)`

lets just focus on the side of the equation after the negative for now..

first, distribute the negative...


`-(x+4) \\ -x-4`

now lets add this back to the original...


`8x+6 - x -4`

add like terms...


`7x+2`

and there we have it fully simplified!
