\( 5u + 4v - 2 \)
Solución
Step 1: Start with the expression
\[
-(-5u - 4v + 2)
\]
Step 2: Distribute the \(-1\) to every term inside the parentheses:
\[
-1 \times -5u = 5u, \quad -1 \times -4v = 4v, \quad -1 \times 2 = -2
\]
Step 3: Combine the resulting terms:
\[
5u + 4v - 2
\]

First, let's apply the distributive property! We will take the negative sign outside the parentheses and distribute it to each term inside: \[ -(-5u) + -(-4v) + -2 = 5u + 4v - 2 \] Now, the expression without parentheses is: \[ 5u + 4v - 2 \] Keeping it clear can really help avoid confusion with signs, and always double-check your work to catch any pesky mistakes!
