Answer:

-11m-8

*The answer must have a negative sign.*

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac

First, you expand.

$-8(m+1)=-8m-8$

Then you rewrite the problem down.

$-3m-8m-8$

Finally, you add by the numbers and similar elements.

$-3m-8m=-11m$

$3+8=11$

Final answer is -11m-8
