$= - 210 - 75 q$ $=color(blue)(-210 -75q$

$- 15 \cdot (14 + 5 q)$ $color(blue)(−15) * (14+5q)$

Here , $(15)$ $color(blue)((15))$ needs to be multiplied with both terms within the bracket.

$= (- 15) \cdot (14 + 5 q)$ $=color(blue)((−15)) * (14+5q)$

$= (- 15) \cdot (14) + (- 15) \cdot (5 q)$ $=color(blue)((−15)) * (14) +color(blue)((−15)) * (5q)$

$= - 210 - 75 q$ $=color(blue)(-210 -75q$

How do you simplify -15( 14 + 5q)−15(14+5q)-15( 14 + 5q)?
