$$
-5 + 34(8h + 12) - 10h = -5 + 272h + 408 - 10h = 262h + 403. Answer: \boxed{262h + 403}.
wrong
Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct it.
To simplify −5+34(8h+12)−10h, we can start by distributing the 34 to the terms inside the parentheses:
−5 + 34(8h + 12) − 10h = −5 + 34 * 8h + 34 * 12 − 10h.
Next, we simplify the resulting expression:
−5 + 272h + 408 − 10h = 262h + 403.
So the simplified expression is 262h + 403. Answer: \boxed{262h + 403}.
To simplify the expression −5+34(8h+12)−10h, we can use the distributive property and combine like terms.
First, let's distribute the 34 to both terms inside the parentheses:
−5 + 34(8h + 12) − 10h = −5 + (34 * 8h) + (34 * 12) − 10h
Next, let's simplify the expression further:
−5 + (272h) + 408 − 10h = (272h - 10h) + (-5 + 408)
Now, let's combine like terms:
272h - 10h = 262h
-5 + 408 = 403
The simplified expression is 262h + 403.
