To expand the expression \(58(-8 - 3f)\), we distribute 58 to both terms inside the parentheses.

  1. Distributing \(58\) to \(-8\): \[ 58 \times -8 = -464 \]

  2. Distributing \(58\) to \(-3f\): \[ 58 \times -3f = -174f \]

Now, combining both results, we have: \[ -464 - 174f \]

Thus, the expanded expression is: \[ -174f - 464 \]
