Question

My little sister needs help 2(4x-1)=?

Answer 1

Answer:

8x-2, or $\frac{1}{4}$ if you meant it with a zero at the end

Step-by-step explanation:

When a factor is outside the parentheses, multiply what is inside it by the factor in front!

$2(4x-1)=2*4x+2*-1=8x-2$

Or if you meant it with a 0 at the end,

$8x-2=0\\8x=2\\x=\frac{2}{8}\\ x=\frac{1}{4}$

Hope this helps!

P.S. Hi little Sis! Hope you get better at math!
