Step-by-step explanation

We must simplify the expression:


2y-6\left(5z-5y\right)+z

1) First, we apply the distributive property of multiplication with the terms in the parenthesis:


2y+(-6)\cdot5z+(-6)\cdot(-5y)+z.

2) Doing the multiplications, we get:


2y-30z+30y+z.

3) Summing the terms with z and the terms with y, we get:


(2y+30y)+(z-30z)=32y-29z.Answer

32y - 29z
