Question

4(3B + 2) -7B
please help!!​

Answer 1

=5B+8

Explanation:

Simplify: 4 (3B+2) -7B : 5B+8

4 (3B+2)-7B

Expand: 4(3B+2): 12B+8

=12B+8-7B

Simplify: 12B+8-7B :5B+8

=5B+8

Answer 2

5B + 8

Explanation:

the first step is to use the distributive property, so if you multiply 4 by 3B you get 12B, and 4 times 2 equals 8. so you are left with 12B+8-7B

now the next step is to combine like terms, so you take 12B and -7B you are left with 5B

so the answer is 5B + 8
