Question

How do you simplify `-7(x-4) -6(x+5)`?

Answer 1

`=color(blue)(-13x +2`

Explanation:

`color(blue)(−7) * (x−4) color(green)(−6) * (x+5)`

`=color(blue)(−7) * (x) - color(blue)(7) * (−4) color(green)(−6) * (x) color(green)(−6) * (5)`

`=-7x +28 -6x -30`

`=-7x -6x +28 -30`

`=color(blue)(-13x +2`
