We're being asked to simplify the given expression.
00:02
So first, let's simplify inside our brackets.
00:06
To do that, we have to get rid of our grouping symbol, or the parentheses, by using distributed property.
00:11
So i'm going to bring the 3 minus 2 bracket down.
00:15
So first, let's distribute the 5.
00:17
Well, 5 times x is 5x.
00:20
5 times negative 10y is negative 50y.
00:24
Now, in front of our second set of parentheses, we have a minus sign, which is going to change the sign of each of the terms in that process.
00:30
So in other words, the positive 3 will become negative 3, and the positive 2y will become negative 2y.
00:39
Now we can go ahead and get rid of the brackets by distributing the negative 2.
00:44
So i'm going to bring the first term of 3 down...
