can you multiple a number without a (x) with a x number
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
yes you can. but you cannot add them
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
\[a \times bx \implies (a \times b)x\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
For example:
-3*-4x = (-3*-4)x = 12x

just do \[-4 \times -5\] then just stick the x later on
OpenStudy (anonymous):
