To simplify the expression \((h + k) - (2k - h)\), we can use the properties of operations, specifically the distributive property and the associative property.

  1. Start with the expression:
    \((h + k) - (2k - h)\)

  2. Distribute the negative sign:
    \((h + k) - 2k + h\)

  3. Combine like terms:

    • Combine \(h + h\): \(2h\)
    • Combine \(k - 2k\): \(-k\)

So, we have:
\[ 2h - k \]

Thus, the simplified expression is \(2h - k\).

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