Question
Expand −56(9b−12)
.(1 point)

Answer 1

To expand the expression \(-56(9b - 12)\), you need to distribute \(-56\) to both terms inside the parentheses:

\[
-56(9b) + (-56)(-12)
\]

Calculating each term:

1. \(-56 \times 9b = -504b\)
2. \(-56 \times -12 = 672\)

Now, combine the results:

\[
-504b + 672
\]

Thus, the expanded expression is:

\[
\boxed{-504b + 672}
\]
