Answer:

1) (3 - 6x)(-8) = (-8)(3) - (-8)(6x) = -24 - (-48x) = -24 + 48x = 48x - 24

2) (-12)(2x - 3) = (-12)(2x) - (-12)(3) = -24x - (-36) = -24x + 36 = 36 - 24x

3) (10 - 2x)9 = (9)(10) - (9)(2x) = 90 - 18x

4) (-5)(11x - 2) = (-5)(11x) - (-5)(2) = -55x - (-10) = -55x + 10 = 10 - 55x

5) (1 - 9x)(-10) = (-10)(1) - (-10)(9x) = -10 - (-90x) = -10 + 90x = 90x - 10

6) (-6)(x + 8) = (-6)(x) + (-6)(8) = -6x + (-48) = -6x - 48

7) (-4 + 3x)(-8) = (-8)(-4) + (-8)(3x) = 32 + (-24x) = 32 - 24x

8) (-5)(1 - 11x) = (-5)(1) - (-5)(11x) = -5 - (-55x) = -5 + 55x = 55x -5

9) (-12x + 14)(-5) = (-5)(-12x) + (-5)(14) = 60x + (-70) = 60x - 70

Explanation:

The distributive property is a(b + c) = ab + ac
