Answer:

Explanation:

simplifying: 5(7x-2)-14x+4

first, take 5(7x-2), 5 is outside the brackets so 5 WILL BE MULTIPLIED WITH BOTH TERMS IN THE BRACKET

so,

5(7x-2)

=37x-14.

now we have

(37x-14)-14x-4.

removing brackets:

37x - 14 - 14x - 4.

arrange KEEPING SIGNS IM MIND

37x - 14x - 14 - 4

so we got on simplifying,

23x - 18

hope it helped!
