Question

simplify.
(4xy^2-7y^2+2x) - ( 5x^2y+x-6xy^2)

Answer 1

Okay,so first step is before you remove the parenthesis of the other part
you,change the signs
like,
negative + positive =negative
negative+negative=positive

Answer 2

(4xy^2-7y^2+2x) - ( 5x^2y+x-6xy^2)
4xy^2-7y^2+2x - 5x^2y-x+6xy^2

Answer 3

don't I combine the like terms next?

Answer 4

Now the second part is,get all xy^2 together and y^2 together and x's together/

Answer 5

Yeah,that. Can you arrange and show?

Answer 6

4xy^2+6xy^2-7y^2+2x-5x^2y

Answer 7

Now add the values with xy^2 together.

Answer 8

10xy^2+6xy^2-7y^2+2x-5x^2y

Answer 9

oops forget the 6xy^2

Answer 10

Answer 11

I was copying the eqution back and forgot to skip that part when re-typing

Answer 12

ugh sorry I just have so much to get done i'm kinda rushing =p

Answer 13

It would be like,
4xy^2-7y^2+2x - 5x^2y-x+6xy^2
4xy^2+6xy^2+2x-x-7y^2-5x^2y
10xy^2+x-7y^2-5x^y.
