Question 687645: Hello, the question reads a follows -8(5y-4)+10y-12 I attempted to solve the problem -40y+32+10y-12 equals 30y-20 is this correct ? Answer by josh_jordan(263) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The answer you provided is not correct. It was, up until you added everything together. -40y + 32 + 10y - 12 = -30y + 20, not 30y - 20. It looks as if you reversed the signs in front of the numbers. :)
