HELP PLZ!!
2(-8)+(-9c)(-8)
-16 + 72c
Which do you think is the correct answer?
Step 1: Distribute the -8 to both terms inside the parentheses.
(-8)(2) = -16
(-8)(-9c) = 72c
Step 2: Combine the results of the two products.
-16 + 72c
Therefore, the simplified form of the expression (2 - 9c)(-8) is -16 + 72c.
So, the correct answer is A. -16 + 72c.
