Question

Which expression is equivalent?

7 − 4(2x − 3)
A) 8x + 5
B) 8x − 19
C) −8x + 5
D) −8x + 19

Answer 1

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we expand the expression using the rule:

$x(y - z) = xy - xz$

$7 - (4 \times 2x)- ( - 4 \times 3)$

Double negative = Positive

$7 - (4 \times 2x) + (4 \times 3)$

$7 - 8x + 12$

$- 8x + 19$

The answer is D.

Answer 2

It’s answer D because when you slave it you will get -8x+19
