Question

What is the result when the expression (6x-3) is subtracted from (-3x+2)?

Answer 1

6x−3−(−3x+2) ,Distribute the Negative Sign: =6x−3+−1(−3x+2) =6x+−3+−1(−3x)+(−1)(2) =6x+−3+3x+−2 ,Combine Like Terms: =6x+−3+3x+−2 =(6x+3x)+(−3+−2) =9x+−5

Answer 2

$(6x - 3) - (-3x+2) \\ \\ 6x - 3 + 3x - 2 \\ \\ (6x + 3x) - 3 - 2 \\ \\ 9x - 3 - 2 \\ \\ 9x - 5 \\ \\ Answer: \fbox {9x - 5}$
