概要

TLDRThe video explains how to simplify the expression 16x + 14 minus the entire expression 3x^2 + x - 9. The process involves adding the opposite of the second expression by distributing the negative sign to each term. This distribution changes the signs resulting in -3x^2, -x, and +9. By combining like terms, the x squared term remains -3x^2, the linear terms combine to 15x, and the constants add up to 23, forming the simplified result: -3x^2 + 15x + 23.

収穫

  • 🤔 Distribute the negative: Apply the negative sign across the entire expression 3x^2 + x - 9.
  • 💡 Combine like terms: Identify and simplify terms of the same degree.
  • ➡️ Highest degree term: Recognize the importance of ordering terms by degree.
  • 🧮 Simplification result: Final simplified form is -3x^2 + 15x + 23.
  • 🔄 Negative sign effects: Changes each term's sign in the expression.
  • 📊 Linear term analysis: 16x - x simplifies to 15x.
  • 📝 Constant term sum: 14 + 9 results in 23.
  • 🧠 Problem-solving steps: Detailed procedural breakdown for clarity.

    The instructor explains that to simplify the expression "16x plus 14 minus (3x squared plus x minus 9)," one should subtract the entire expression, which equals adding the opposite of that expression. This involves distributing a negative sign across the terms in the parentheses. First, rewrite the expression as "16x + 14 + (-1) * (3x^2 + x - 9)." Distribute the negative sign: "16x + 14 - 3x^2 - x + 9." Simplify by combining like terms: the highest degree term "-3x^2," next the x terms "16x - x = 15x," and constant terms "14 + 9 = 23." Thus, the final simplified expression is "-3x^2 + 15x + 23."

    Simplify 16x plus 14 minus the entire expression 3x
  • 00:00:05
    squared plus x minus 9.
  • 00:00:08
    So when you subtract an entire expression,
  • 00:00:10
    this is the exact same thing as having 16x plus 14.
  • 00:00:16
    And then you're adding the opposite of this whole thing.
  • 00:00:19
    Or you're adding negative 1 times 3x
  • 00:00:24
    squared plus x minus 9.
  • 00:00:27
    Or another way to think about it is you
  • 00:00:29
    can distribute this negative sign along all of those terms.
  • 00:00:32
    That's essentially what we're about to do here.
  • 00:00:34
    We're just adding the negative of this entire thing.
  • 00:00:37
    We're adding the opposite of it.
  • 00:00:39
    So this first part-- I'm not going to change it.
  • 00:00:41
    That's still just 16x plus 14.
  • 00:00:43
    But now I'm going to distribute the negative sign here.
  • 00:00:46
    So negative 1 times 3x squared is negative 3x squared.
  • 00:00:52
    Negative 1 times positive x is negative
  • 00:00:56
    x because that's positive 1x.
  • 00:00:59
    Negative 1 times negative 9-- remember,
  • 00:01:02
    you have to consider this negative right over there.
  • 00:01:04
    That is part of the term.
  • 00:01:05
    Negative 1 times negative 9 is positive 9.
  • 00:01:08
    Negative times a negative is a positive.
  • 00:01:11
    So then we have positive 9.
  • 00:01:14
    And now we just have to combine like terms.
  • 00:01:16
    So what's our highest degree term here?
  • 00:01:17
    I like to write it in that order.
  • 00:01:19
    We have only one x squared term, second-degree term.
  • 00:01:22
    We only have one of those.
  • 00:01:23
    So let me write it over here-- negative 3x squared.
  • 00:01:26
    And then what do we have in terms of first-degree terms,
  • 00:01:29
    of just an x, x to the first power?
  • 00:01:30
    Well, we have a 16x.
  • 00:01:33
    And then from that, we're going to subtract an x, subtract 1x.
  • 00:01:36
    So 16x minus 1x is 15x.
  • 00:01:40
    If you have 16 of something and you subtract 1 of them away,
  • 00:01:43
    you're going to have 15 of that something.
  • 00:01:45
    And then finally, you have 14.
  • 00:01:48
    You could view that as 14 times x to the 0 or just 14.
  • 00:01:51
    14 plus 9-- they're both constant terms,
  • 00:01:55
    or they're both being multiplied by x to the 0.
  • 00:01:57
    14 plus 9 is 23.
  • 00:02:01
    And we're done.
  • 00:02:01
    Negative 3x squared plus 15x plus 23.
