Question

Simplify, y-8(y+12) + 4

NEED HELP​

Answer 1

so first distribute the 8 out then add everything together:

y-8y-96+4 = -7y-92

Answer 2

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\huge\textbf{Equation:}$

$\mathbf{y - 8(y + 12) + 4}$

$\huge\textbf{Solving:}$

$\mathbf{y - 8(y + 12) + 4}$
$\huge\textbf{DISTRIBUTE -8 WITHIN the}\\\\\\\huge\textbf{PARENTHESES:}$

$\mathbf{= y - 8(y) - 8(12) + 4}$

$\mathbf{= y - 8y - 96 + 4}$

$\huge\textbf{COMBINE the LIKE TERMS:}$

$\mathbf{= (y - 8y) + (-96 + 4)}$

$\mathbf{= y - 8y - 96 + 4}$

$\huge\textbf{Simplify it!}$

$\mathbf{ = -7y - 92}$

$\huge\textbf{Answer:}$

$\huge\boxed{\mathbf{ -7y - 92}}\huge\checkmark$
