write an expression equivalent to 8(-2y + 6 - 3). 8(-2y + 6 - 3) = y +?

Explanation:

Step1: Simplify the expression inside the parentheses

First, simplify (6 - 3) in (-2y+6 - 3). (6-3 = 3), so the expression becomes (8(-2y + 3)).

Step2: Use the distributive property (a(b + c)=ab+ac)

Here (a = 8), (b=-2y), (c = 3). (8\times(-2y)+8\times3) (8\times(-2y)=-16y) and (8\times3 = 24)

Answer:

(-16y + 24)
