Subtract 12(z+4)−3(14z+1) . Use fractions in final form.(1 point)

1 answer

To subtract these expressions, we need to distribute the negative sign to both terms in the second expression:

12(z + 4) - 3(14z + 1)
= 12z + 48 - 42z - 3

Now, let's combine like terms:

= (12z - 42z) + (48 - 3)
= -30z + 45

So, the final answer is -30z + 45.
