Expand -4(6a-5) please

1 answer

To expand the expression \(-4(6a - 5)\), you will distribute \(-4\) to each term inside the parentheses:

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

Calculating each term:

  1. \(-4 \times 6a = -24a\)
  2. \(-4 \times -5 = 20\)

Putting it all together, the expanded expression is:

\[ -24a + 20 \]

So, \(-4(6a - 5) = -24a + 20\).
