2 x + 4

Solution steps

(3 x + 5) - (x + 1)

Apply rule:

(a) = a

(3 x + 5) = 3 x + 5

= 3 x + 5 - (x + 1)

Apply the distributive law:

- (a + b) = - a - b

- (x + 1) = - x - 1

= 3 x + 5 - x - 1

Group like terms

= 3 x - x + 5 - 1

Add similar elements:

3 x - x = 2 x

= 2 x + 5 - 1

Subtract the numbers:

5 - 1 = 4

= 2 x + 4

(x^{- 1} - y^{- 1})^{- 1}

\frac{x ^{2} - 7 x - 8}{x ^{2} - 64}

2^{6 l o g_{4} (n) + 7}
