Math Problem Statement

Rewrite in simplest terms: -7(-3t + 5) + 4t

Solution

Let's simplify the given expression step by step:

Expression:

7(3t+5)+4t-7(-3t + 5) + 4t

Step 1: Distribute 7-7 across (3t+5)(-3t + 5)

7(3t)+(7)(5)-7(-3t) + (-7)(5) Simplify each term: 21t3521t - 35

Step 2: Combine the distributed terms with 4t4t

Now the expression becomes: 21t35+4t21t - 35 + 4t

Combine like terms (21t21t and 4t4t): (21+4)t35=25t35(21 + 4)t - 35 = 25t - 35

Final Answer:

25t3525t - 35
