Question

Simplify the following.
x(y-2) + y(z - x) + z(x - y)​

Answer 1

Answer:

XZ - 2X

Explanation:

Let's simplify step-by-step.

x(y−2)+y(z−x)+z(x−y)

Distribute:

=(x)(y)+(x)(−2)+(y)(z)+(y)(−x)+(z)(x)+(z)(−y)

=xy+−2x+yz+−xy+xz+−yz

Combine Like Terms:

=xy+−2x+yz+−xy+xz+−yz

=(xy+−xy)+(xz)+(yz+−yz)+(−2x)

=xz+−2x
