Let's do this together!
Start by
4 — (x-2) (x+2)
4 - x + 2 - x + 2
(4+2+2) + (-x - x)
= 8 - 2x
First, we removed the pasrtheseses. We did that to make things more organized, in this case they're not needed!
Next, let's put all the same terms in the same spot, this makes it way easier to solve!
Great! Then what you'd do is add everything together.
4 + 2 + 2 = 8
-x - x = -2x
The equation looks like this now, 8 - 2x.
The reason it is not a full number is that this is the simplified equation, therefore you have your final answer!
