Question

which expression is equivalent to -4(8z - 8) + 6z? 32z - 26 14z + 32 -26z - 8 -26z + 32

Explanation:

Step1: Distribute -4 to terms inside parentheses

$-4(8z - 8) = (-4 \times 8z) + (-4 \times -8) = -32z + 32$

Step2: Add the remaining term $6z$

$-32z + 32 + 6z = (-32z + 6z) + 32$

Step3: Combine like terms

$-32z + 6z = -26z$, so the expression becomes $-26z + 32$

Answer:

-26z + 32
