Answer:

-2x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

so lets start

you want to distribute the -2 to the parenthesis

so -2(x) = -2x  and  -2(-4) = 8 because of 2 negatives make a positive

Answer: -2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

  • In order to simplify this we must distribute the -2 to the values inside of the parentheses.

-2*x = -2x\\\-2 * -4 = 8

Since two negatives are being multiplied, the product is a positive number.

The final simplified answer is -2x + 8 .
