Question

What is the answer when simplified?

Answer 1

We distributed the negative sign, combined like terms, and obtained the simplified expression -2y+2.

Let’s simplify the expression:

(x−y+1)−(x+y−1)

Steps to solve:

1. Distribute the negative sign:

x−y+1−x−y+1

2. Combine like terms:

−y+2−y

3. Combine like terms:

−2y+2

Answer:

−2y+2
