Question

how do you simplify (4x^2-2x+1)-(5x^2+2x+3)

Answer 1

\[(4x^{2}-2x+1)-(5x^{2}+2x+3)\] lets look at the first part first. okay?

Answer 2

Lets factor it.
\[4x^{2}-2x+1\]\[(2x+.5)(2x+.5)\]

Answer 3

now lets do the second part:
\[5x^{2}+2x+3\]\[(2x+1.5)(3x+1.5)\] and one of the \[(2x+5)\] should acually be:
\[(2x-0.5)\]

Answer 4

wow your good thankyou

Answer 5

no problem. I just finished a segment about Factoring in my curriculum. :P
