Question

1)-8(a-3)+4(а-2)-2 (3а + 1) =​

Answer 1

Ответ:

-10а + 14

Объяснение:

-8(а - 3) + 4(а - 2) - 2(3а + 1) =

-8а + 24 + 4а - 8 - 6а - 2 =

(-8а + 4а - 6а) + (24 - 8 - 2) = -10а + 14

Answer 2

To simplify the expression -8(a-3) + 4(a-2) - 2(3a+1), you can use the distributive property and then combine like terms:

1. Distribute the constants outside the parentheses to the terms inside: -8(a) + 8(3) + 4(a) - 4(2) - 2(3a) - 2(1)

2. Now, multiply the constants with the terms inside the parentheses: -8a + 24 + 4a - 8 - 6a - 2

3. Combine like terms: (-8a + 4a - 6a) + (24 - 8 - 2)

4. Combine the like terms in each set of parentheses: -10a + 14

So, the simplified expression is -10a + 14.
