How do I use the distributive law for this question. 6-(p-4) and 6-p+4

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

You distributed correctly. You now combine like terms.

How do I do that?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

6 and 4 are like terms so 6+4 = 10

geerky42 (geerky42):

\(6-(p-4)\) is same as \(6+-1(p-4)\)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

6-p+4 turns into 10-p

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

or -p+10
