Simplify the following expression. (62x + 71y) - (4x + 25y) A.58x + 46y B.66x + 46y C.66x + 96y D.58x + 96y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

62 - 4 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

58x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what else @greenlegodude57

OpenStudy (anonymous):

71 - 25 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

46y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, It is A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(62x + 71y) - (4x + 25y) Remember, there's a negative one beside the parenthesis: (62x + 71y) - 1(4x + 25y) Distribute it and you get: 62x + 71y - 4x - 25y So you subtract 71y - 25y, not add.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep, that's right.
