Write an equivalent expression of 8m-(5+2m) without parentheses

6m-5

Step-by-step explanation:

first you have distribute the negative to the equation in the parentheses so you get

8m - 5 - 2m

Then combine the like terms

So the final answer is 6m-5

6m - 5

Rewriting the expression above without parentheses is done by simply removing the parentheses using the negative sign. Note that the signs of the constant (5) and term (8m) in the expression are positive (+). Thus, using the negative sign to remove the parentheses will be done using the arithmetic signs rule: - × + = -, that is, minus times plus equals minus; such that - × + 2 = - 2 and - × +8m = -8m.

=> 8m - 5 - 2m

=> 8m - 2m - 5

=> 6m - 5
