Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When we remove the parentheses, we distribute the negative sign on the second set of parentheses resulting to:
-5x - 3y - 2 - 6z + 3w + 5
Combining Like Terms, we have:
-5x - 3y - 6z + 3w + 3

Remove the Parentheses from the Expression and Simplify (−5x−3y−2)−(6z−3w−5)( - 5 x - 3 y - 2 ) - ( 6 z - 3 w - 5 )(−5x−3y−2)−(6z−3w−5)
