Question

I need help Simplifying!!!!!!!!!!
2x−(x+6)

Answer 1

To simplify this, we first need to distribute the negative sign to the (x+6). It's easier to see if we rewrite the negative as -1:
$2x+(-1)(x+6)=2x+(-1)*x+(-1)*6=2x-x-6$

Now combine like terms:
$2x-x-6=x-6$

Answer 2

2x - (x + 6)

The first step is to multiply every term inside the parentheses by -1.

2x - x - 6

Now combine like terms.

x - 6

Done.
