Use the properties of operations to add 4(g-2)+(g+2)

Question

A. 5g+10
B 5g
C. 5g-10
D. 5g-6

Answer 1

To add 4(g-2)+(g+2), we can use the distributive property to simplify the expression.

4(g-2) = 4 * g - 4 * 2 = 4g - 8

Now we can rewrite the expression:

4(g-2) + (g+2) = (4g - 8) + (g + 2)

Combining like terms:

= 4g + g - 8 + 2

= 5g - 6

So the simplified expression is 5g - 6.

Therefore, the answer is D. 5g-6.
