Question

Distribute and then combine the like terms to simplify each expression.

8f - 6 (-5 - 7f)

please help

Answer 1

Answer: We start by distributing the -6 to the terms inside the parentheses:

8f - 6(-5) - 6(7f)

Then we simplify each term inside the parentheses:

8f + 30 + 42f

Now we combine like terms:

8f + 30 + 42f = 50f + 30

So the simplified expression is 50f + 30
