Answer:

2x*-3x-5

* = squared

Explanation:

step 1: distribute “x” to “2x+1”

-you now have the equation: 2x*+1x-4x-5

step 2: combine like terms (combine “1x” and “-4x”. that gets you “-3x”.)

-you now have the equation: 2x*-3x-5

step 3: you have no more like terms, your equation is solved.

final equation: 2x*-3x-5
