Answer: 10x+16

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property a(b+c)= ab+ac

-2(-5x-8) = (-2 * -5x) - (-2* -8)

10x-(-16)

=10x+16

Hope this helped!

Answer:

d=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor d^2 - 2d - 8 into (d-4)(d+2)

Move -2/d+2 onto the other side, changing it into 2/d+2.

$\frac{-3d}{(d-4)(d+2)} +\frac{3}{d-4}+\frac{2}{d+2} = 0$

Let the empty side equal zero.

Add 3/d-4 and 2/d+2

$\frac{5d-2}{(d+2)(d-4)}$

Then add that to -3d.

$\frac{2d-2}{(d+2)(d+4)}$

Multiply 0 by d+2 and d-4 to get 2d-2 by itself.

2d=2

d=1

I can't edit the equation, but it's d-4 althroughout the question. Sorry for being so slow.
