Question

Which expression is equivalent to left parenthesis 2 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus blank 3 x minus 2 right parenthesis minus left parenthesis 5 x to the power of 2 end exponent minus x minus 7 right parenthesis?

  1. 7 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus 4 x plus 9    
  2. 3 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus 4 x plus 5    
  3. negative 3 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus 2 x minus 9    
  4. negative 3 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus 4 x plus 5    

The correct answer is: negative 3 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus 4 x plus 5


    HINT: Use distributive law and simplify.
    Complete step by step Solution
    Distribute negative sign to each term in (5 x to the power of 2 end exponent minus x minus 7)
    We get, negative 5 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus x plus 7
    Hence the given expression becomes 2 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus blank 3 x minus 2 minus 5 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus x plus 7
    On adding the like terms of the simplified expression, we get
    2 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus blank 3 x minus 2 blank minus 5 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus x plus 7 equals blank minus 3 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus 4 x plus 5
    Thus, option D is the answer.
    Note: We can also solve this question by subtraction that is:
    left parenthesis 2 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus blank 3 x minus 2 right parenthesis minus left parenthesis 5 x to the power of 2 end exponent minus x minus 7 right parenthesis equals blank minus 3 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus 4 x plus 5
    Thus, we get the correct answer.
