Let's simplify each expression step by step.
- ((5x^2 + 8x - 7) - (2x^2 - 2x - 12))
First, distribute the negative sign:
[
= 5x^2 + 8x - 7 - 2x^2 + 2x + 12
]
Now, combine like terms:
[
= (5x^2 - 2x^2) + (8x + 2x) + (-7 + 12)
]
[
= 3x^2 + 10x + 5
]
- ((2x - 3) + (-2x^2 - 5x - 18))
Combine like terms:
[
= 2x - 3 - 2x^2 - 5x - 18
]
Now, rearranging and combining:
[
= -2x^2 + (2x - 5x) + (-3 - 18)
]
[
= -2x^2 - 3x - 21
]
- ((6a^2 - 3a + 11) - (-3a - a^2 + 7))
Distributing the negative sign:
[
= 6a^2 - 3a + 11 + 3a + a^2 - 7
]
Combining like terms:
[
= (6a^2 + a^2) + (-3a + 3a) + (11 - 7)
]
[
= 7a^2 + 0a + 4
]
[
= 7a^2 + 4
]
- ((14xy - 9x^2 - 3y^2) - (-3x^2 + 5xy - 4y^2))
Distributing the negative sign:
[
= 14xy - 9x^2 - 3y^2 + 3x^2 - 5xy + 4y^2
]
Combining like terms:
[
= (-9x^2 + 3x^2) + (14xy - 5xy) + (-3y^2 + 4y^2)
]
[
= -6x^2 + 9xy + y^2
]
- ((7ab^2 - 15ab + 3a^2b) + (30ab - 8a^2 - b))
Combining like terms:
[
= 7ab^2 + (-15ab + 30ab) + (3a^2b - 8a^2) - b
]
[
= 7ab^2 + 15ab + (3a^2b - 8a^2) - b
]
Further simplifying gives:
[
= 7ab^2 + 15ab + 3a^2b - 8a^2 - b
]
If combined further:
[
= 7ab^2 + (15ab - b) + 3a^2b - 8a^2
]
[
= 7ab^2 + 14ab + 3a^2b - 8a^2
]
Your final answers are:
- (3x^2 + 10x + 5)
- (-2x^2 - 3x - 21)
- (7a^2 + 4)
- (-6x^2 + 9xy + y^2)
- (7ab^2 + 14ab + 3a^2b - 8a^2)
