Answer 2

Hey there!

The second "
`x`" is has invisible
`1`

Here, this is what I meant:
`x^ 1`

So, now your equation looks like this:
`x^4(x^1`
`-2)`

Add the exponents:
`4 + 1`
`= 5`

Therefore your answer should be:
`x^5 - 2`

(Note: there's many ways to solve these types of equations, I just gave you the basic method)

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
