a)simplify the expression and explain each step

4(3x+2)-2
b)Factor the expression below
20b-16
help please

a) First do 4*3x = 12x then do 4*2 = 8 after that do 8 -2 = 6. So my answer is 12x + 6 (they said to simplify the expression not to find the answer)

b) First find the GCF of 20 and 16 ,which is 4 then divided 20 and 16 by 4 ,which is 5 and 4. Lastly write it as 4 (5b - 4)

answers:

a =18x
b=4b

a) 4x3 = 12

8- -2 = 6
comes out to 12x+6
for b i dont think you need to explain i just put 4b

@Dr. Miller you're probably a child acting like an adultπŸ™„...anyways why are YOU on this site🧐 plus some people come on here to check their answers and some do come on here to cheat and if they are cheating its none of your business anyways πŸ₯±so learn to mind yours πŸ˜—

dear @Trump 2020,

for the record, this is a quiz, the 5.5.7 - Quiz: Writing & Evaluating Algebraic Expressions Quiz Part 2. Mrs. Sue has also very sadly passed on, so if you would like to keep ranting to her that's fine, just know she'll never see it. You also have/had no idea what she was really like in her lifetime, if she was rude or not. And she was not being disrespectful at all, just clarifying that @horse girl should try and solve the question using what she learned from the lesson. And if you are mad at her for not replying to @horse girl later on, she may have not seen it or some other cause; you don't know. I hope this helps you become a little kinder to those around you. I also wish you the best of luck at becoming a teacher, although if you are to become one, you really should learn to use the correct your/you're.

Oh, and before I forget, Biden has my vote.

First of all to all the people going at "Mrs Sue" Mrs Sue passed in December 2019 so whoever is acting like Mrs Sure is messed up and you shouldn't act like someone who has pasted thank you

can i get step by step for it plz

I need the answer for the same queston.

Thank you Rose!

I would like to say @Monkey D. Luffy you are so right Mr. Miller I dont like that your being to people on this site if have nothin good to say dont say it at all cause no one asked you to here saying rude crap

@Monkey D. Luffy i agree, but i feel that after cheating, they should at least try to learn how to solve the equation, but as you said its not really any of my business. Also @Rose is right :)

brilexa is right 100%

tysm Rose!

smh ms sue quizzes actually effect our grade, maybe if teachers like you taught us better we wouldnt have to look up answers

Stop hating on Ms. Sue, she did nothing wrong. Horse girl said that it was a quiz in the first place so Ms. Sue didn't know it was a quick check. And, honestly, Horse girl probably just said it was a quick check because of what Ms. Sue said.

If you paid a little attention maybe you wouldn't be here. Go back to class and stop using this website for answers. Especially if you think you can pass the EOG Test (Or GMAS)

12x+(8-2) = 12x+6

For the second question, we first find the GCF. To do this, find the prime factorization of 20 and 16:

20 = 4*5

4 = 2*2

20 = 2*2*5

16 = 4*4

4 = 2*2

16 = 2*2*2*2

For the GCF, we take the common factors; these are 2*2 = 4. This makes 4 the GCF.

Factoring 4 out of 20b, we have 5b; factoring 4 out of -16 gives us -4. This gives us 4(5b-4).

i hope this help guys

Mrs. Sue the fact that your gonna be rude to students, means your not a good teacher, clearly nobody likes you, your rude and bring kids down, I’m a teenager studying to be a teacher, if I were you I’d be a lot nicer to students and people, your really rude. No disrespect but honestly, be nicer.

Actually β€œAubrie” this is a quick check, so Chile tf out before you get jumped.
