Simplify the expression.

Question

(2x+2)−(3x+11)

Answer 1

To simplify the expression, we can distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the parentheses:

(2x + 2) - (3x + 11) = 2x + 2 - 3x - 11

Now we can combine like terms:

2x - 3x + 2 - 11 = -x - 9

So the simplified expression is -x - 9.
