This is a simple example: 2(-3+4) + 2(-6-5) 1. Multiply 2 and -3: -6 2. Multiply 2 and 4: 8 3. Multiply the 2 and -6: -12 7. Multiply the 2 and -5: -10 (subtraction signs count as - signs in the equation.) So it'll look like this: -6+8 + -12+5(Change the subtraction sign to addition, and change the negative sign to positive.) 2+-7= -5 Therefore, -5 is your answer!
