We must expand and simplify the following expression:
[tex]5-(4+x)[/tex]
1) First, we apply the distributive property for the multiplication in the second term:
[tex]5-4-x[/tex]
2) Now, we compute the difference between the two first terms:
[tex]1-x[/tex]
Answer
The simplified expression is:
[tex]1-x[/tex]
