12-(5u+v)-4(u-6)+2v

OpenStudy (earthcitizen):

u =? v=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what does this mean?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Is there supposed to be an equal sign in there somewhere?

OpenStudy (earthcitizen):

what is u and v ? otherwise just collect like terms from the equation

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Otherwise, just remove the parentheses and add like terms.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no there is no equal sign, it states clear parentheses and combine like terms

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Can you remove the parentheses?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

\[12-(5u+v)-4(u-6)+2v = 12-5u-v-4u+24 +2v = 36-9u+v\]

OpenStudy (mertsj):

\[=36-9u+v\]
