Question

an expression that is equivalent to:14 (32 + 24e - 4)

Answer 1

ANSWER

8 + 6e - f

EXPLANATION

We can write an equivalent expression by applying the distributive property of addition:

$\frac{1}{4}(32+24e-4f)$

We have to multiply each term inside the parenthesis by 1/4 - which is the same as dividing by 4:

$\frac{1}{4}\cdot32+\frac{1}{4}\cdot24e-\frac{1}{4}\cdot4f$

Solving

$8+6e-f$
