Answer:
(4 * 8y) - (4 * 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the equation 4(8y - 12) and are asked to expand, this equation can be solved through distribution, and to expand it, we need to separate the "4" to multiplying into "8y" and "-12"
Therefore :
(4 * 8y)(4 * -12)
Now this may seem correct, but we have to keep in mind that we are not multiplying both answers within the parenthesis but yet subtracting, therefore :
(4 * 8y) - (4 * 12)
