Question

-8x-2(5+4x) I just need some good old fashion help finding the equivalent to the expression I got right here thank you much

Answer 1

-8x-2(5+4x)
-8x-10-8x
-16x-10

Answer 2

Answer:

-32x^2 - 48x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to distribute -8x to (5+4x) and -2 to (5+4x)

Here is how it's done.

-8x(5+4x) - 2(5+4x)

-40x - 32x^2 - 10 - 8x

Now combine the like term:

-32x^2 - 40x - 8x - 10

-32x^2 - 48x - 10
