ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you may draw the expression using the "Draw" button below

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(-j+8)\frac{ 1 }{ 2}\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

distribute ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i need it simplified

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes :) we can multiply 1/2 here :- \((-j+8)\frac{ 1 }{ 2} \) \(-j \times \frac{ 1 }{ 2} + 8 \times \frac{ 1 }{ 2} \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that the lowest it can be simplified too?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(-j \times \frac{ 1 }{ 2} + 8 \times \frac{ 1 }{ 2}\) \( \frac{ -j }{ 2} + \frac{ 8 }{ 2}\) \( \frac{ -j }{ 2} + 4\) \( 4 - \frac{ j }{ 2} \)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

maybe leave it there
