-3(-13+m)+11
Apply the Distributive Property:
= (-3)(-13) + (-3)(m) + 11
Simplify:
= 39 - 3m + 11
Combine like terms:
= -3m + 50
Apply the Commutative Property of Addition and rearrange the terms:
= -3m + 12
−3⋅
+(−3⋅m)+11
Apply the Distributive Property.
To apply the Distributive Property, you need to distribute the -3 to both terms inside the parentheses.
= -3 * -13 + -3 * m + 11
When you multiply -3 by -13, you get 39.
= 39 + -3 * m + 11
Since -3 * m is -3m, you can substitute this into the expression:
= 39 - 3m + 11
Now, to simplify further, you can combine like terms.
= -3m + 50
Therefore, the expression -3(-13+m)+11 is equivalent to -3m + 50.

In order to show that -3(-13+m)+11 is equivalent to -3m+12, let's step through the solution:
1. -3(-13+m)+11
Apply the Distributive Property to distribute -3 to both terms inside the parentheses:
= (-3)(-13) + (-3)(m) + 11
Simplify the multiplication:
= 39 - 3m + 11
2. = 39 - 3m + 11
Combine like terms:
= -3m + 50
3. Therefore, -3(-13+m)+11 is equivalent to -3m+50.
