How do you simplify algebraic expressions with brackets?
put the bracket before the answer and multiply it by the nth term
How can i Simplify -(-3w-v)-2(4v-w)?
Multiply out the brackets and collect the like terms which simplifies to 5w-7v
What does multiply out the exspresion mean?
It means calculate the value of the expression (i.e. simplify) by mutiplying. So, as a completely random example, if you have an expression like: x(x + 1) then, in this particular case, you would multiply what is outside of the brackets by each term inside the brackets to get: x2 + x.
How do you multiply out?
there is no such thing as multiply out...is only multiply out brackets... :)
Explain brackets in order of operation?
Brackets are basically the same as parentheses. If they are inside of parentheses, then you simplify that term before anything else. If they are outside of parentheses, then you simplify the terms in the parentheses first and then the term within the brackets.
