simplify(w+1)+(L-1)Multiplied by X= and simplify (w+1)multiplied by X+(L-1)please can some one simplify?

Answer 1

W + 1 + L*X - X ... distribute the X
1 + W + L*X -X ...
1 + w + x*(L-1) is really the most simple form...

Your notation is extremely ambiguous. I have NO IDEA what the heck equation you want simplified. Please use parentheses and proper notation next time and I might be able to help you.

Answer 2

I think you mean

a) Simplify (w+1)+(L-1) multiplied by X

and

b) Simplify (w+1) multiplied by X+(L-1)

For a)

Expand the brackets, since it's all addition and subtraction you can ignore the brackets and you get

(w+1)+(L-1) = w + 1 + L - 1

Gather like terms together and you get

w + L + 1 - 1 = w + L

now the multiply bit

w + L multiplied by X can be written

(w + L) X

Everything in the brackets must be multiplied by the X

(w + L) times X = w times X + L times X

or in other words

wX + LX

b) This is harder

Start with the X + (L-1)

Again since it's all plus and minus here we can ignore the brackets and you get

X + L - 1

Now you want to multiply (w + 1) by this so you write

(w + 1) times (X + L - 1)

Everything in the left hand bracket must be multiplied by everything in the right hand bracket

(w + 1) must be Multiplied by the X, the L and the -1

So you get

X times (w +1) + L times (w + 1) + (-1) times (w + 1)

or

X(w + 1) + L(w + 1) + (-1)(w + 1)

Expand the brackets for all these

Xw + X1 + Lw +L1 + (-1)w + (-1)1

or

Xw + X + Lw + L -w -1

It's very messy. I suggest you get your teacher to go through this with you.

Answer 3

You've written the question really quite badly - I can't work out at all what you mean.
