Simplify -(x-2y) - y.

Answer 1

Answer: I think the answer is -x + y.

Step-by-step explanation:I think this is the answer because you first start off by distributing all the variables inside the parenthesis by the negative sign which would give you -x+2y-y. After that, you would have to subtract 2y-y because they share the same variable and you must have a SIMPLIFIED ANSWER. So with that said, your overall answer should be -x+y. Hope I'm right in giving you the correct answer!!!!

Answer 2

Explanation:

x(x-2y)-(y-x)2

Final result :

-y2

Step by step solution :

Step 1 :

Equation at the end of step 1 :

x • (x - 2y) - (y - x)2

Step 2 :

2.1 Evaluate : (y-x)2 = y2-2xy+x2

Final result :

-y2
