OpenStudy (anonymous):

@chycora Come back here

OpenStudy (chycora):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, so we have 1.8x \(2x - (1.8x + 2.7)\) Distribute -1 into the parenthesis: \(2x - 1.8x - 2.7\) What's 2 - 1.8?

OpenStudy (chycora):

0.2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, so we have: \(0.2x - 2.7\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's our answer.
