Transcript
00:0-1 were asked to simplify this huge long expression here .
00:03 Extra third plus three X minus six that's in parentheses
00:06 , plus negative two X squared plus X minus two
00:10 and then minus the quantity three X minus four .
00:12 So a good place to start . We'll just rewrite
00:14 this and see if we can eliminate the parentheses in
00:17 the steps of the first to start at the beginning
00:19 , we have the extra third right over there ,
00:23 so extra third and then plus three x under that
00:27 pink plus three x plus three x and then we
00:32 have a minus six minus six . And we don't
00:36 have to put the parentheses around there that those don't
00:38 really change anything . Plus , and we don't have
00:40 to even write these parents do anything with these parentheses
00:42 . We can eliminate them because there is a positive
00:44 sign out here . We don't have to distribute anything
00:46 . Distributing a positive sign doesn't do anything . These
00:48 numbers . So then , Plus , we have a
00:50 negative two x squared . So this term right here
00:54 is negative two x squared or minus X squared ,
00:57 and then we have a plus X . We have
01:00 a plus X plus X , Then we have a
01:05 minus two . We have a minus two . Then
01:09 we have a negative sign . Times this hold expressions
01:11 were going to distribute the negative science , so it's
01:13 a positive . Three . X is being multiplied by
01:15 negative one , so it's really a negative three x
01:18 so minus three x minus three X and then you
01:22 have a negative you can imagine . This is a
01:24 negative one implicitly out here . Negative one times negative
01:27 . Four . That's a positive four . So plus
01:29 four plus four Now we can combine terms of similar
01:35 degree of the same degree . Now , first we
01:37 have an extra third term , and I think it's
01:38 the only third degree term here because we have X
01:41 being raised to the third power . Let me just
01:43 read right here . We have extra third and also
01:45 look at our X Square terms . Looks like we
01:47 only have one . We only have this term right
01:50 here , so we have minus two x squared .
01:54 And what about our X terms ? We have a
01:56 three X plus and X minus three x again so
02:00 that three x minus three x will cancel out and
02:03 you're just left with an X . So plus X
02:07 and then finally are constant terms . Negative . Six
02:10 minus two plus four Negative . Six minus two gets
02:13 us to negative . Eight plus four is negative .
02:17 Four negative four and we are done . We have
02:20 simplified the expression . Now we just have a four
02:23 term polynomial .
