Full solution

Q. 2(24p)+2(2p1)2(-2-4p)+2(-2p-1)
  1. Distribute 22 into first set: Distribute the 22 into the first set of parentheses.\newlineWe need to multiply 22 by each term inside the parentheses (2-2 and 4p-4p).\newline2×2=42 \times -2 = -4\newline2×4p=8p2 \times -4p = -8p\newlineSo the first part of the expression becomes 48p-4 - 8p.
  2. Distribute 22 into second set: Distribute the 22 into the second set of parentheses.\newlineSimilarly, we multiply 22 by each term inside the parentheses (2p-2p and 1-1).\newline2×2p=4p2 \times -2p = -4p\newline2×1=22 \times -1 = -2\newlineSo the second part of the expression becomes 4p2-4p - 2.
  3. Combine like terms: Combine like terms from both parts of the expression.\newlineWe add together the constant terms and the terms with the variable pp.\newline4-4 (from the first part) and 2-2 (from the second part) combine to 6-6.\newline8p-8p (from the first part) and 4p-4p (from the second part) combine to 12p-12p.\newlineSo the expression simplifies to 612p-6 - 12p.
