HELP PLEAS Kadesha is simplifying the expression below. Negative (x minus 3) minus 2 (x minus 1) She lists the steps that she uses to simplify the expression as follows: Step 1: Distribute –1 through (x minus 3), and distribute –2 through (x minus 1). Step 2: Rewrite the expression as Negative x minus 3 minus 2 x minus 2. Step 3: Combine –x and –2x, and combine –3 and –2. Step 4: The simplified expression is Negative 3 x minus 5. In which step did Kadesha make the first error? She made the first error in Step 1 because only –2 should be distributed through the parentheses. She made the first error in Step 2 because Step 2 should be Negative x + 3 minus 2 x + 2. She made the first error in Step 3 because –x and –2x cannot be combined. She made the first error in Step 4 because the simplified expression is Negative x minus 5.
