Question

Simplify 8y(y - 4) + 3y(y + 2).

Answer 1

Hey!

Let's write the problem,

`8y\left(y-4\right)+3y\left(y+2\right)`
Apply the distributive property on the left side.

`=8y^2-32y+3y\left(y+2\right)`
Apply the distributive property on the right side.

`=8y^2-32y+3y^2+6y`
Add like terms.

`=11y^2-26y`
We have successfully finished simplifying the expression.

Thanks!

Answer 2

= 8y^2 - 32y + 3y^2 + 6y

= 11y^2 - 26y
