Answer 7

is there anything on the other side of the equal sign? or are you supposed to use the distributive law to remove the parentheses?

Answer 8

to simplify, multiply the 4 to both terms in the parenthesis next to it, and multiply the negative sign to the terms in the parenthesis next to it. you end up with 4xy-x-1

Answer 9

so first factor in the 4 and the -1 and you get
4xy-4-x+3
combine like terms
4xy-x-1

Answer 10

\[4(xy-1)-(x-3)=4\times xy-4\times 1-x-3\] is a start

Answer 12

-3x(x^3+2x^2-x) and this one im suppose to multiply and simplify
