Question 1110127: Tammy simplified the problem as shown, (x^3+3x)-(x^2+6-4x)=x^3-x^2-x-6, Mr.Adkins told her she was wrong. Explain what she did wrong and give the correct simplification. (The numbers to the right of ^ are exponents) Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! (x^3+3x)-(x^2+6-4x)=
When you removed brackets, change the sign of 4x also
x^3 + 3x - x^2 - 6 + 4x = x^3 - x^2 + 7x - 6
