−9(−0.7h−2h+8)−2h

Answer 1

Therefore, the simplified expression is 20.3h - 72

Explanation:

First, distribute -9 to each term inside the parentheses:

-9 * (-0.7h) - 9 * (-2h) - 9 * 8 - 2h

Simplifying:

6.3h + 18h - 72 - 2h

Combine like terms:

(6.3h + 18h - 2h) - 72

Simplifying:

22.3h - 2h - 72

Combine like terms:

(22.3h - 2h) - 72

Simplifying:

20.3h - 72
