The video tutorial explains how to subtract linear expressions in four steps: distributing the negative sign, removing parentheses, identifying like terms, and combining them. It provides examples to illustrate each step and encourages viewers to practice with additional problems.

What is the first step in subtracting linear expressions?

• Combine like terms

• Distribute the negative sign

• Remove parentheses

• Add constants

Why is there an invisible number one after a negative sign?

• To add complexity

• To make calculations easier

• To ensure proper distribution

• To change the variable

What happens to a positive number when multiplied by negative one?

• It doubles

• It becomes negative

• It remains positive

• It becomes zero

In the expression -1 * 2x, what is the result?

• 2x

• -2x

• 0

• 4x

What is the next step after distributing the negative sign?

• Combine constants

• Identify like terms

• Add variables

• Remove parentheses

Which of the following are like terms?

• 3x and 5

• 4x and -2x

• 6 and 3x

• 2x and 3

What is the final expression after combining 4x and -2x?

• -2x

• 0

• 2x

• 6x

In the second example, what is the result of -1 * -3d?

• 3d

• 0

• -6d

• -3d

What are the like terms in the second example?

• 3d and 6

• 7d and 5

• 7d and 3d

• 6 and 3d

What is the final expression after combining 7d and 3d?

• 4d

• 14d

• 0

• 10d
