Question

-3(y + 4) + 4 (2y - 2) simplify

Answer 1

7y-20

Explanation:

-3y-12+8y-8

7y-20

Answer 2

5y - 20

Explanation:

Simplify the expression.

Remove the parenthesis by multiplying each term of (y+ 4) by (-3) and multiplying each term of (2y - 2) by 4

-3(y + 4) + 4(2y - 2) = (-3)*y + (-3)*4 + 4*2y - 2*4

= -3y - 12 + 8y - 8

= -3y + 8y -12 - 8

Combine like terms (-3y & 8y) and constants (-12 & -8).

= 5y - 20
