Find the value of this integer expression: − 2(+ 3 +− 4 +− 8 ++ 7) .

With Distribution and without Distribution.

with: (-2)(+3) + (-2)(-4) + ...

without: (-2)(3-4-8+7) = (-2)(-2) = 4

This whole portfolio is annoying, especially because it has 8 questions 0-0

@steve can you pls finnish it may have been 2 years but still lol

ok so i ended up figuring it out. here's my work:

Calculation with Distribution:
(-2)(+3) + (-2)(-4)
(-2)(-8) + (-2)(7)=
-6 + 8 + 16 - 14=
4

With the second to last row of work, those are all the answers to the numbers in the parenthesis. With all of them added up, you get the answer of 4. I hope this helped you! Let me know if there's anything else that needs explaining cause don't worry, I was confused too. :P

Find the value of this integer expression: − 2( 3+ −4 + −8 +7)
With Distribution and without Distribution.

This is my answer with distribution can u check it?
2(3+-4+-8+7)=
(-2)(3)+(-2)(-4)(-2)(-8)+(-2)(7)=
-6+8+16-14=
4

And then this is without
-2(3+-4+-8+7)=
-2(-2)=
4
Pls anyone let me know as soon as possible thanks
