Question

HURRY PLEASE NEED IT NOW! What is the simplified value of the expression below? -1(2x + 3) -2 (x - 1)?

Answer 1

`\huge \boxed{-4x-1}`, you can use the distributive property of
`\displaystyle a(b+c)=ab+ac`.

Multiply from left to right.

`\displaystyle 1*(2x+3)=2x+3`

`\displaystyle -(2x+3)-2(x-1)`

`\displaystyle -(2x+3)=-2x-3`

`-2(x-1)=-2x+2=-2x-3-2x+2`

`\Large\textnormal{Solve to find the answer.}`

`\displaystyle-2x-3-2x+2=-4x-1`

`\large \boxed{-4x-1}`, which is our answer.

Answer 2

-4x-1

Explanation:

-1(2x + 3) -2 (x - 1)

Distribute the -1 and the -2

-2x - 3 -2 x +2
