Given:

The expression is:


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

To find:

The simplified form of the given expression.

Solution:

We have,


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

Using distributive property, we get


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


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

On combining like terms, we get


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


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

Therefore, the simplified form of the given expression is
-4x-1.

Note: The correct option is not available.
