To subtract, we distribute the terms inside the parentheses:
12(z+4) - 4(14z+1) = 12z + 48 - 56z - 4
Combining like terms, we have:
(-44z) + (48 - 4) = -44z + 44
Finally, we can factor out 4:
-44z + 44 = 4(-11z + 11)
So the final answer is 4(-11z + 11).
Subtract 12(z+4)−4(14z+1) . Use fractions in final form.(1 point)
