Question

Simplify -4(6x - 7) – 3(4 + 2x).
40x - 40
30x + 40
-30X + 16
-40x + 16​

Answer 1

-30x + 16. You use the distributive property to get -24x + 28 -12 -6x. Then combine like terms to get -30x + 16.

Answer 2

So you have
-4(6x-7)-3(4+2x)
1.) distributive property

-24x+28-12-6x

2.) combine like terms -24x-6x to get -30x

-30x+28-12
3.) combine 28-12 to give you
-30x+16
The answer is the third choice. Hope this helps!!! :)
