8 � {3x + 9y � (2x � y) + 8x + 5y} ... Start with the given equation.

8 � {3x + 9y -2x + y + 8x + 5y} ... Distribute the negative. So becomes

8 � {9x + 15y} ... Combine like terms

8 �9x - 15y ... Distribute the negative. So becomes

-9x - 15y + 8 ... Rearrange the terms.

============================================
Answer:

So 8 � {3x + 9y � (2x � y) + 8x + 5y} = -9x - 15y + 8
