Use the distributive property to simplify the expression below: -4(2u - 1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-8 u + 4

OpenStudy (charlotte123):

Lol sorry forgot to put choices >.< 8u + 4 -8u - 1 -8u + 4 -8u - 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Tadah, it's C lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Distributive property essentially means exactly what is says: to distribute. Take the -4 and multiply it into each of the items inside the parenthesis. The answer is -8u + 4, but that is the reasoning as to why.
