Answer:
The equivalent expression to the given expression 4m-2+(-8m) is -2(2m+1)
That is 4m-2+(-8m)=-2(2m+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is 4m-2+(-8m)
To find the equivalent expression to the given expression 4m-2+(-8m):
4m-2+(-8m)=4m-2-8m ( here using Associative property )
=-4m-2 ( adding the like terms )
=-2(2m+1) ( taking common term -2 in the above expression )
Therefore 4m-2+(-8m)=-2(2m+1)
Therefore The equivalent expression to the given expression 4m-2+(-8m) is -2(2m+1)
That is 4m-2+(-8m)=-2(2m+1)
