My friend and I are getting different answers. Tell me what you get! Please only do... if you understand this.

The 2 in the first problem is an exponent... so, multiply the number twice.

(evaluate the expression for the giving value of the variable):o

-2(x)-4x-4;x=-3

Also,
(only combine like terms)
4-(2x-5)+13x

Thank you!
