ANSWER: 10 x - 200 + 30 y


You will remove them parentheses soon so…


20 ( 1/2 x - 2) + 40 ( 3/4 y - 4)

Distributed 20 through the parentheses

10 x - 40 + 40 (3/4 y - 4)

( this is for 20 ( 1 /2 x - 2) side, now let’s do the other side)

10 x - 40 + 30 y - 160

( this is for 40 (3/4 y -4 side )

Now calculate the difference


10 x - 200 + 30 y

That will be your answer.
