Answer:
-32 + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply each number in the backet by -4
-4 x 8 = -32
-4 x -3 = 13
General rules:
negative multiply a positive is negative
positive multiply a negative is negative
negative multiply a negative is positive
B. -32 + 12
When we solve -4(8-3) we get -20
to solve first subtract 3 from 8 to get 5, then multiply -4 and 5 to get -20
-32 + 12 also = -20 therefore, these expressions are equivalent.
hope this helps!
