Question

.(1 point)

Answer 1

To expand the expression \(-4(6a - 5)\), apply the distributive property:

\[ -4 \times 6a + (-4) \times (-5) \]

Calculating each term:

\[ -4 \times 6a = -24a \]

\[ -4 \times -5 = 20 \]

Now, combine these results:

\[ -24a + 20 \]

So, the expanded form of \(-4(6a - 5)\) is:

\[ -24a + 20 \]
