Question

write an equivalent expression by distributing the \−\ sign outside the parentheses: \\(-(6.1s + 2)\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Distribute the negative sign to $6.1s$

$-(6.1s) = -6.1s$

Step2: Distribute the negative sign to $2$

$-(2) = -2$

Step3: Combine the two terms

$-6.1s + (-2) = -6.1s - 2$

Answer:

$-6.1s - 2$
