Question

Can you please simplify -9(2x-4)

Answer 1

-18 • (x - 2) Is that answer

Answer 2

First you multiply the -9 and 2 x and that gives you 18x then you do -9 multiplied by -4 and since they are both negatives that leaves us with a positive number 36 so the final answer is 18x+36. In short anything outside of the parenthesis is multiplied by anything on the inside hope that helped
