To simplify the expression −5+3/4(8h+12)−10h, we will perform the operations in the given order.
First, distribute 3/4 to 8h and 12:
−5 + 3/4 * 8h + 3/4 * 12 − 10h
Simplify the expression:
−5 + (6h) + (9/4) - 10h
Combine like terms:
(6h - 10h) + (-5 + 9/4)
Combine like terms:
-4h + (-20 + 9/4)
Combine the fractions:
-4h + (-80/4 + 9/4)
Combine the numbers and fractions:
-4h + (-71/4)
The simplified expression is -4h - 71/4.
