−(−7x+3.2y+8.3)Write an equivalent expression by distributing the "minus−" sign outside the parentheses:

Answer 1

To distribute the "minus" sign outside the parentheses in the expression \(-(-7x + 3.2y + 8.3)\), you change the sign of each term inside the parentheses:

\[ -(-7x) + (-3.2y) + (-8.3) = 7x - 3.2y - 8.3 \]

So, the equivalent expression is:

\[ 7x - 3.2y - 8.3 \]
