Simplify −4(7b+3)+24b−8.(1 point) Responses 4b+20 4 b plus 20 −4b+20 negative 4 b plus 20 −4b−20 negative 4 b minus 20 4b−20 4 b minus 20

Answer 1

−4(7b+3)+24b−8 can be simplified as follows:

First, distribute -4 to both terms inside the parentheses:

-4 * 7b = -28b
-4 * 3 = -12

So we have: -28b - 12 + 24b - 8

Next, combine like terms:

-28b + 24b = -4b
-12 - 8 = -20

So the simplified expression is -4b - 20.
