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

Answer 1

To add 4(g-2) + (g+2), we first apply the distributive property by multiplying 4 with each term inside the first parentheses:

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

Now we have: 4g - 8 + (g+2)

Next, we combine like terms by adding the coefficients of similar variables:

4g + g = 5g

-8 + 2 = -6

Therefore, 4(g-2) + (g+2) simplifies to 5g - 6.
