Answer:

This is the answer I think?

Explanation:

10w-2(3w+4)+4

10w-6w-8+4

4w-8+4

4w-4

12x-(7y-8x)+4x-11y

12x-7y+8x+4x-11y

24x-7y-11y

24x-18y

Answer:

Explanation:

10w - 2(3w + 4) + 4 = 10w + (-2)*3w + (-2)*4 + 4

= 10w - 6w - 8 + 4

= 4w - 4

12x - (7y - 8x) + 4x - 11y = 12x - 7y + 8x +4x -11y

= 12x + 8x + 4x - 7y - 11y

= 24x - 18y
