Question

Subtract: (3b-2c)-(6c+2b)-(b+c)

Answer 1

Answer:-9c

Step-by-step explanation:

First arrange

(3b-2c)-(6c+2b)-(b+c) into

(3b-2c)-(2b+6c)-(b+c)

Release brackets

3b-2c-2b+6c-(b+c)

For (b+c), once you release the bracket, the addition sign(+) will turn into a subtraction(-) sign. Which is b-c

3b-2c-2b+6c-b-c

Then do subtraction

3b-2c-2b+6c-b-c

3b-2b-b=0b

With nothing left, do the c.

-2c-6c-c=-9c

Therefore, the answer is -9c

Answer 2

To subtract the given expression, distribute the negative sign, combine like terms, and simplify.

Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract the given expression:

1. Distribute the negative sign to each term within the parentheses, resulting in:
2. 3b-2c-6c-2b-b-c
3. Combine like terms:
4. (3b-2b)-(2c+6c)-(b+c)
5. b-8c-2b-c
6. Combine like terms again:
7. (b-2b)-(8c-c)
8. -b-7c
9. Therefore, the simplified expression is -b-7c.
