Question

Simplify the expression:
-6(1.4 - r)=

Answer 1

you have to distribute the -6 to everything in the parentheses, so -6*1.4 is -8.4 and then -6* -r is 6r and then you’re supposed to add -8.4 to 6r but you can’t because of the variable to the answer is -8.4+6r

Answer 2

`6r-8.4`

Explanation:

`-6(1.4-r)`

Use the distibutivve property to multiply -6 by 1.4 - r

`-8.4 +6r`

Then move over 6r to the front

`6r-8.4`
