Question

$- x +(5y - (x - (5y - 2x)))$
​

Answer 1

-4x+10y

Step-by-step explanation:

-x+(5y-(x-5y+2x))

-x+(5y-x+5y-2x)

-x+5y-x+5y-2x

-x-x-2x+5y+5y

-4x+10y

Answer 2

Given

$-x+(5y-(x-(5y-2x)))$

$\rule{300}{1}$

To Find

Simplify the given expression

$\rule{300}{1}$

Solution

Let's simplify step-by-step.

⇒ $-x+(5y-(x-(5y-2x)))$

⇒ $-x+5y+-x+5y+-2x$

Combine Like Terms:

⇒ $-x+5y+-x+5y+-2x$

⇒ $(-x+-x+-2x)+(5y+5y)$

⇒ $-4x+10y$

∴ When we simplify -x + (5y - (x - (5y - 2x))) we get -4x + 10y

$\rule{300}{1}$

Additional Information

An expression is a mathematical statement that consists of variables, constants and also exponents sometimes. They don't have an equal sign and the exact value can't be found.

Variables are values represented is alphabetical form. The value of a variable varies.

Constants are values represented in numerical form. The value of a constant doesn't vary.

To simplify an expression we must combine like terms and then proceed.
