Find the value of this integer expression: − 2(+ 3 +− 4 +− 8 ++ 7) .
With Distribution and without Distribution.
Okay so do I write it like this and is this right??✔︎✔︎☟︎︎︎☟︎︎︎
2(3+-4+-8+7)=
(-2)(3)+(-2)(-4)(-2)(-8)+(-2)(7)=
-6+8+16-14=
4
ms sue can u please check this im not cheating im just checking that im right so pls help mee😵❤️
or anyone who'll help then pls help😳😂
looks good
If I understand correctly, you are asking for the value of the integer expression −2(+ 3 +− 4 +− 8 ++ 7) with and without distribution.
With Distribution:
−2(+ 3 +− 4 +− 8 + 7) can be rewritten as −2(3) +−2(−4) +−2(−8) +−2(7).
Now, we can simply perform the multiplication and addition/subtraction:
−6 + 8 + 16 − 14 = 4.
Without Distribution:
When we have a negative sign in front of the parentheses, it means we need to distribute the negative sign to each term inside the parentheses.
Therefore, −2(+ 3 +− 4 +− 8 + 7) can be rewritten as −2(3) − 2(−4) − 2(−8) + 2(7).
Now, we can perform the multiplication and addition/subtraction:
−6 + 8 + 16 + 14 = 32.
Therefore, the value of the integer expression with distribution is 4, and without distribution is 32.
To find the value of the integer expression − 2(+ 3 +− 4 +− 8 + + 7) with distribution, you can follow these steps:
1. First, simplify the expression inside the brackets by combining like terms:
(+3 + -4 + -8 + +7) = -2
2. Then, distribute the -2 to each term inside the brackets:
-2 * -2 = 4
So, the value of the expression − 2(+ 3 +− 4 +− 8 + + 7) with distribution is 4.
Now, let's find the value of the expression without using distribution:
1. Simplify the expression inside the brackets:
(+3 + -4 + -8 + +7) = -2
2. Multiply -2 by the sum of the terms inside the brackets:
-2 * -2 = 4
So, the value of the expression − 2(+ 3 +− 4 +− 8 + + 7) without distribution is also 4.
Therefore, both methods yield the same value of 4.
