Sharina simplified the expression 3(2x – 6 – x + 1)2 – 2 + 4x. in step 1 she simplified within the parentheses. in step 2 she expanded the exponent. which is a possible next step? simplify the expression by adding and subtracting from left to right. combine like terms within the parentheses. combine all x-terms. distribute the 3 to each term in the parentheses by multiplying.

Distribute the 3 to each term in the parentheses by multiplying.

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x – 6 – x + 1)^2 – 2 + 4x

In Step 1 she simplified within the parentheses.

The expression becomes

In Step 2 she expanded the exponent.

After expanding the exponent (x-5)^2 it becomes (x^2-10+25)

In the next step we distribute 3 inside the parenthesis in order to remove the parenthesis .

Distribute the 3 to each term in the parentheses by multiplying.

wholesale price is the initial price before markup. retail price comes after the markup.
