To simplify the expression \((h + k) - (2k - h)\), we can use the properties of operations.
-
Distribute the negative sign: \[ (h + k) - (2k - h) = (h + k) - 2k + h \]
-
Combine like terms: \[ h + h + k - 2k = 2h + k - 2k \] \[ = 2h - k \]
So, the result of \((h + k) - (2k - h)\) is \(2h - k\).
The correct response is: 2h−k (2 h minus k).
