subtract 2(k-4)-3(2k-1)
-4k-5
8k-11
-4k-11
-6k-18
To subtract 2(k-4)-3(2k-1), we need to distribute the 2 and the 3:
2(k-4) = 2k - 8
-3(2k-1) = -6k +3
Now, we can subtract these two expressions:
2k - 8 - 6k + 3
Combine like terms:
(2k - 6k) + (-8 + 3)
-4k - 5
So, the simplified expression is -4k - 5.
