Simplify the expression. (6x−10)−(2x+12) (1 point) Responses 4x+2 4 x plus 2 8x−2 8 x minus 2 8x−22 8 x minus 22 4x−22

Answer 1

To simplify the expression (6x-10)-(2x+12), distribute the negative sign through the second expression:

(6x - 10) - 2x - 12

Combine like terms:

(6x - 2x) - (10 + 12)

4x - 22

The simplified expression is 4x-22.
