1 answer

To simplify the expression \((h+k) - (2k - h)\), we can follow these steps:

  1. Distribute the negative sign across the second parentheses: \[ (h + k) - 2k + h \]

  2. Combine like terms:

    • Combine the \(h\) terms: \(h + h = 2h\)
    • Combine the \(k\) terms: \(k - 2k = -k\)

So, the expression simplifies to: \[ 2h - k \]

The correct response is: 2h−k (2 h minus k).
