Do the bits in ( )'s first and simplify there...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how do you distribute the 1- to the (y-3) :( ??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
OK you you have 1 minus y minus minus 3 which is...?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y+4?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Good, now how about the other ( )?

It's -y not y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
final answer : 5y^2 + 14y+24 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you can just "read" it--- plus1 minusy minusminus3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is my answer correct? im confused again
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You are going a bit too fast, do it more slowly and remember minus minus is a plus...

so...your are saying that 3-y(y-4) = -y^2 -12 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the y(y-4) you should first and then plus3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Basically you want to get rid of those inside ( )'s before you do anything else, do you see what i mean?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
noo i dont understand..
y(y-4)+3 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It doesn't say y(y-4) +3 it says -y(y-4) +3...

Expand -y(y-4) and what do you get?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-y^2-4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-y^2-4y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You seem to be getting stuck every time on minus minus, minus y times minus 4 equals PLUS 4y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
SOO 3y (y-4) -2 (-y^2+4y) :D ?
nut there is the plus there for the second bracket go ?
3y (y-4) -2 (-y^2+4y)+3 ?

Write the original question with the ( )'s expanded as we discussed and be careful with the signs
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3y^2-12y+2y^2-8y
5y^2-20y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3y[ put something here ] -2 [ and here ]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3y[ y-4] -2 [-y(y-4+3]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i give up..

Why do you put y-4?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that what you said to write
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3y[ -y + 4 ] -2[ 3 - y^2 + 4y ] You need to understand this, then you can do the rest, OK
