Simplify. Write your answer in standard form with no spaces 2(x - 9)

Sagot :

We want to simplify the expression

[tex]2(x-9)[/tex]

To do that, we're going to use the distributive property. The distributive property is

[tex]a(b+c)=ab+ac[/tex]

Using the distributive property in our problem, we have

[tex]2(x-9)=2x-18[/tex]

And this is our answer.
