Question

Simplify the expression:
1+4 (2x - 3) - x=

Answer 1

5(2x-3)-x
10x-15-x
9x-15
After this it is not possible as no value is given after =

Answer 2

1 + (4(2x - 3) - x

Apply the multiplicative law of distribution.

1 + 4× 2x - 4 × 3 - x

Multiply the monomial.

1 + 8x - 4 × 3 - x

Calculate the product or coefficient.

1 + 8x - 12 - x

Rearrange Like Terms.

(1 - 12) + (8x - x)

Collect like terms by adding their coefficients.

(1 - 12) + (8 - 1) × x

Calculate the first two terms.

-11 + (8 - 1) × x

-11 + 7x ===> Answer
