Question 211377: -4(-6t - u) + 4 (2u + 6t)
Answer by rapaljer(4671)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! -4(-6t - u) + 4 (2u + 6t)
By distributive property:
24t + 4u +8u +24t
Next combine like terms:
24t + 24t + 4u + 8u
48t +12u
If you have trouble with this type of problem, please see my own website by clicking on my tutor name "Rapaljer" anywhere in algebra.com. Look near the top of my homepage for "Basic, Intermediate, and College Algebra: One Step at a Time". Choose "Basic Algebra", and look in Chapter 1 for the first few topics. The one you need for this problem was "1.06 Combining Like Terms and the Distributive Property." My explanations are written for students who have trouble with math to understand. A lot of these problems are also solved in my "MATH IN LIVING COLOR" pages. I hope this is helpful to you!
