What is 6.3-2(1.5c+4.1)
ASHA 777 [7]
Expand\;-2\left(1.5c+4.1\right)
\mathrm{Distribute\:parentheses\:using}: \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac
\;a=-2,\:b=1.5c,\:c=4.1

Simplify\;-2\cdot \:1.5c-2\cdot \:4.1 \ \textgreater \  \mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:1.5=3
-3c-2\cdot \:4.1

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:4.1=8.2 \ \textgreater \  -3c-8.2 \ \textgreater \  6.3-3c-8.2

\mathrm{Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:6.3-8.2=-1.9 \ \textgreater \  -3c-1.9

Hope this helps!
