Question

Write an expression that is equivalent to 4(b+2)-3b

Answer 1

Ok so first we need to distribute so:
=(4)(b)+(4)(2)+−3b
=4b+8+−3b
So now that we've distrubuted that we are now going to Combine Like Terms:
=4b+8+−3b
=(4b+−3b)+(8)
Finally your answer is:
=b+8
I hope this helps you!

Answer 2

4 (b + 2 ) - 3b

....

Distribute 4 into the parenthesis.

......

We now have: 4b + 8 - 3b.

............

Time to combine like terms.

...................

Which gives us ---> 1b + 8
