Math Problem Statement

minus, 10, left parenthesis, 8, f, minus, 9, f, minus, 9, right parenthesis, minus, 7, f−10(8f−9f−9)−7f

Solution

To solve the expression:

10(8f9f9)7f-10(8f - 9f - 9) - 7f

Step-by-step:

  1. Simplify inside the parentheses: 8f9f=f8f - 9f = -f So the expression inside the parentheses becomes: f9-f - 9

  2. Distribute the -10 to each term inside the parentheses: 10(f9)=10f+90-10(-f - 9) = 10f + 90

  3. Now substitute back into the original expression: 10f+907f10f + 90 - 7f

  4. Combine like terms (combine 10f10f and 7f-7f): (10f7f)+90=3f+90(10f - 7f) + 90 = 3f + 90

Thus, the simplified expression is:

3f+903f + 90
