<em><u>Correct steps are shown</u></em>

<em><u>Correct simplified expression is:</u></em>

-(7x - 3y) + 2(x+4) = -5x + 3y+8

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given that: Mara simplifies the expression</u></em>

-(7x - 3y) + 2(x+4)

<em><u>Correct steps are:</u></em>

From given,

-(7x - 3y) + 2(x+4)

<em><u>Use the distributive property,</u></em>

a(b + c) = ab + bc

Therefore,

-(7x - 3y) + 2(x+4) = -7x +3y + 2x + 8

Group the like terms

-(7x - 3y) + 2(x+4) = -7x + 2x + 3y + 8\\\\Combine\ the\ like\ terms\\\\-(7x - 3y) + 2(x+4) = -5x + 3y+8

Thus the expression is simplified
