Explanation:

Step1: Multiply -8 by 9.8c

$\boldsymbol{-8 \times 9.8c = -78.4c}$

Step2: Multiply -8 by -1

$\boldsymbol{-8 \times (-1) = 8}$

Step3: Sum the two products

$\boldsymbol{-78.4c + 8}$

Answer:

Area model missing values (left to right): $\boldsymbol{-78.4c}$, $\boldsymbol{8}$
$\boldsymbol{-8(9.8c - 1) = -78.4c + 8}$
