(6x−10)−(2x+12)
To subtract the expressions (6x-10) and (2x+12), we need to distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the second set of parentheses.
This gives us:
(6x - 10) - (2x + 12)
= 6x - 10 - 2x - 12
Now, we can combine like terms:
= (6x - 2x) + (-10 - 12)
= 4x - 22
So, the simplified expression is 4x - 22.
