simplify to create an equivalent expression.\n8(10 - 6q)+3(-7q - 2)\nchoose 1 answer:\na -69q + 78\nb -55q + 74\nc -69q + 74\nd 69q + 74
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Apply distributive property
$8\times10 - 8\times6q+3\times(-7q)+3\times(-2)$ $=80 - 48q-21q - 6$
Step2: Combine like - terms
$(-48q-21q)+(80 - 6)$ $=-69q + 74$
Answer:
C. $-69q + 74$
