Answer:

2(2x - 1)

Explanation:

opening the parenthesis and distributing the - sign to both 3x and 2

= 7x - 3x - 2

= 4x - 2

taking 2 common

= 2 (2x - 1)

Hi there!

$\large\boxed{4x - 2}$

7x - (3x + 2)

Simplify by distributing the negative sign:

7x - (3x) - (2)

Combine like terms:

4x - 2
