OpenStudy (anonymous):

Simplify: (3x − 5) − (5x + 1)

OpenStudy (bacon):

ok

OpenStudy (bacon):

since 3x and 5x are the same thing add them together

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is -2x+6

OpenStudy (bacon):

then since 5 and 1 are the same thing but its subtract 5 on the first one you do 5-1

OpenStudy (bacon):

so then you do 8x-4, can you do it now?
