Question

Please help. I suck at math. Can someone simply the expression -3x-7(x+4)? ​

Answer 1

`-10x-28`

Explanation:

`-3x-7(x+4)`

Expand by using distributive law:
`a(b+c)=ab+ac`

Therefore,

`-3x-7*x+\left(-7\right)\cdot \:4`

`-3x-7x-7\cdot \:4`

`-3x-7x-28`

Add the x:

`-10x-28`

Answer 2

`- 3x - 7(x + 4) \\ = - 3x - 7x - 28 \\ = - 10x - 28`

hope it helped you:)
