Question

Expand −58(3p+8)
.(1 point)

Answer 1

To expand the expression \(-58(3p + 8)\), apply the distributive property. This involves multiplying \(-58\) by each term inside the parentheses:

\[
-58(3p) + (-58)(8)
\]

Now, calculate each term:

1. \(-58 \cdot 3p = -174p\)
2. \(-58 \cdot 8 = -464\)

Putting it all together, the expanded expression is:

\[
-174p - 464
\]

So the final answer is:

\[
-174p - 464
\]
