I need the step by step I have the answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok first we need to distribute the -4 in to the parenthesis.
-4P+6+2P=|5-3+6|
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you know what the two lines are on the outside of this |5-3+6|
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its like the true value or something
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes its saying that there are two versions of this formula. one is what you see w/out the lines, and the other is just the numbers inside the lines multiplied by -1. so there will be two answers.
