Computer Problem

 

                       Simplify:

 

4-3(x+2)+4x

 

1.)            First I did the distributive property

4-3(x+2)+4x

4-3x+(-6)+4x

(4+-6)+(-3x+4x)

2.)            Then I combined the like terms

The x’s:

                            a.)    (4+-6)+(-3x+4x)

(4+-6)+1x

 

The numbers:

                            b.)         (4+-6)+1x

-2+1x
