Use the distributive property to simplify each expression.
-8\left(x+4\right)
-8(x+4) can be simplified using the distributive property as follows:
-8(x+4) = -8*x + (-8)*4
This simplifies to:
-8x - 32
Use the distributive property to simplify each expression.
12\ -\ \left(x+9\right)
To simplify the expression 12 - (x+9), we can apply the distributive property:
12 - (x+9) = 12 - x - 9
This simplifies to:
3 - x
Use the distributive property to simplify each expression.
2\left(5x-6\right)
To simplify the expression 2(5x-6), we can use the distributive property:
2(5x-6) = 2*5x - 2*6
This simplifies to:
10x - 12
Use the distributive property to simplify each expression.
3\left(4x+1\right)-10x
To simplify the expression 3(4x+1)-10x, we can use the distributive property:
3(4x+1)-10x = 3*4x + 3*1 - 10x
This simplifies to:
12x + 3 - 10x
Combining like terms, we have:
2x + 3
