Answer:
10x - 13
Explanation:
1/2 (8x - 2) + 3/4 (8x - 16) Distribute the fractions. ->
(to distribute multiply the number outside the parentheses to each one inside the parentheses. Ex: 1/2 x 8 = 4 so its 4x for the first one, then do that same for 1/2 and -2)
4x - 1 + 6x - 12 Add like terms. ->
(Add the like terms are numbers/variables that are similar. Ex: 4x and 6x, add them together and you get 10x then do the same for -1 and -12)
10x - 13 <- The Answer
