Answer:
[tex] \huge{ \fbox{ \sf{12x - 28}}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \star{ \sf{ \: \: 4(5x - 6) - 4(2x + 1)}}[/tex]
[tex] \text{Step \: 1 \: : Distribute \: 4 \: through \: the \: parentheses}[/tex]
[tex] \mapsto{ \sf{20x - 24 - 4(2x + 1)}}[/tex]
[tex] \text{Step \: 2 \: : Distribute \: 4 \: through \: the \: parentheses}[/tex]
[tex] \mapsto{ \sf{20x - 24 - 8x - 4}}[/tex]
[tex] \text{Step \: 3 \: : Collect \: like \: terms}[/tex]
[tex] \text{Like \: terms \: are \: those \: which \: have \: same \: base}[/tex]
[tex] \mapsto{ \sf{20x - 8x - 24 - 4}}[/tex]
[tex] \mapsto{ \sf{12x - 24 - 4}}[/tex]
[tex] \text{Step \: 4 \: : Calculate}[/tex]
[tex] \underline{ \sf{Remember!}} : \sf{The \: negative \: integers \: are \: always \: added \: but \: posses \: the \: negative \: ( - ) \: sign}[/tex]
[tex] \mapsto{ \sf{12x - 28}}[/tex]
Hope I helped!
Best regards! :D
