Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

First, use the distributive property to simplify the expression inside the parentheses:

5(7x - 2) - 14x + 4

= 35x - 10 - 14x + 4

Next, combine like terms:

= (35x - 14x) + (-10 + 4)

= 21x - 6

So the simplified expression is 21x - 6.

Answer 2

okay what this then

First, use the distributive property to simplify the expression inside the second set of parentheses:

9(2d + 6) - 11

= 18d + 54 - 11

Next, combine like terms:

= 18d + 43

Finally, combine all the terms in the expression:

17d - 33 + (18d + 43)

= 17d + 18d - 33 + 43

= 35d + 10

So the simplified expression is 35d + 10.

Answer 4

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To simplify the expression 5(7x−2)−14x+4, we can use the distributive property to remove the parentheses first.

Distributing the 5 to each term inside the parentheses gives us:

5 * 7x = 35x
5 * (-2) = -10

So the expression becomes:

35x - 10 - 14x + 4

Next, we can combine like terms by adding or subtracting coefficients of the same variable:

(35x - 14x) + (-10 + 4) = 21x - 6

Therefore, the simplified expression is 21x - 6.
