Simplify: -5+3/4(8h+12)-10h

To simplify the expression, we start by applying the distributive property to the term 3/4(8h+12):

3/4(8h+12) = (3/4) * 8h + (3/4) * 12
= 6h + 9

Now, we substitute the simplified expression back into the original equation:

-5 + 6h + 9 - 10h

Next, we can combine like terms by combining the h terms:

(6h - 10h) -5 + 9
= -4h + 4

Apologies for the mistake. Let's try again.

To simplify the expression, we start by applying the distributive property to the term 3/4(8h+12):

3/4(8h+12) = (3/4) * 8h + (3/4) * 12
= 6h + 9

Now, we substitute the simplified expression back into the original equation:

-5 + 6h + 9 - 10h

Next, we can combine the numerical terms (-5 and 9):

(-5 + 9) + 6h - 10h
= 4 + 6h - 10h

Then, we can combine the h terms:

4 - 4h

Therefore, the simplified expression is 4 - 4h.
