Question

Write the expression without parentheses- (-10h - 7w)

Answer 1

By distributing the minus sign into the parentheses, we get

$-(-10h)-(-7w)$

By the law of signs for multiplication and division:

we have that

$\begin{gathered} -(-10h)=+10h \\ and \\ -(-7w)=7w \end{gathered}$

So we have

$10h+7w$

So the answer is: 10h+7w
