Simplify (2x^2-13x+7)-(1-12x)

Problem

(2*x2−13*x+7)−(1−12*x)

Solution

1. Distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the second set of parentheses.

−(1−12*x)=−1+12*x

2. Rewrite the entire expression without parentheses.

2*x2−13*x+7−1+12*x

3. Group the like terms together.

2*x2+(−13*x+12*x)+(7−1)

4. Combine the coefficients of the like terms to simplify the expression.

2*x2−x+6

Final Answer

(2*x2−13*x+7)−(1−12*x)=2*x2−x+6
