Expand −56(9b−12). Fill in the blanks to complete the expanded expression. (1 point)

Answer 1

To expand the expression $-56(9b-12)$, we distribute $-56$ to both terms inside the parentheses:

$$-56\cdot 9b-(-56)\cdot 12$$

Calculating both products, we get:

$$-504b+672$$

So, the expanded expression is:

$$-504b+672$$

You can fill in the blanks as follows:

• The first term is −504b.
• The second term is +672.

Thus, the completed expanded expression is $-504b+672$.
