Answer:

9g -5h - 8

Explanation:

We first have to get everything out of the parentheses, so we take the negative that is surrounding the parentheses and apply it to the equation inside of it, giving us this: 5g - 2h - 3h - 8 + 4g

Then, all we need to do is simplify it into this expression: 9g -5h - 8
