Question

`- 5(2y - 8) - 3(1 + x) - 7`
can I have the solving steps.​

Answer 1

-(2y-8)-3(1+x)-7
-10y+40-3(1-x)-7
-10y+40-3-3x-7
-10y+30-3x

Answer 2

Distribute -5 into the parentheses, you get
(-10y+40)-3(1+x)-7
Distribute -3, you get
-10y+40-3+3x-7
Combine like terms, the only like terms are 40, -3, and -7 which gives you 30
The equation is now
-10y+30-3x
