Answer:

-10d-4

Explanation:

Well, you're in luck because I LOVE distributive property!!!

-4(2d+3) Multiply -4 by 2d to get -8d, and multiply -4 by 3 for -12, so the result would be -8d-12!

Then, 2(-d+4) and therefore 2 times -d (you can just say -1d) to get -2d and 2*4 would be 8 to make -2d+8!

Now you combine them: -8d-12+-2d+8

Combine like terms!

-10d-4 would be your answer.
