Q. Simplify the expression. Write your answers using integers or improper fractions.\newline2(5y+3y4)+23y 2(-5 y+3 y-4)+\frac{2}{3} y \newlineAnswer:
  1. Simplify Terms: Simplify the expression inside the parentheses by combining like terms. \newline5y+3y=2y-5y + 3y = -2y\newlineSo, the expression becomes 2(2y4)2(-2y - 4).
  2. Distribute 22: Distribute the 22 across the terms inside the parentheses.\newline2×2y=4y2 \times -2y = -4y\newline2×4=82 \times -4 = -8\newlineSo, the expression now is 4y8-4y - 8.
  3. Add Fraction Term: Add the (23)y(\frac{2}{3})y term to the expression.\newlineThe expression is now 4y8+(23)y-4y - 8 + (\frac{2}{3})y.
  4. Combine Y Terms: Combine the yy terms.\newlineTo combine 4y-4y and (2/3)y(2/3)y, we need a common denominator. The common denominator for 11 (the implicit denominator of 4y-4y) and 33 is 33.\newlineSo, we convert 4y-4y to (4×3/3)y=12/3y(-4 \times 3/3)y = -12/3y.\newlineNow we can combine the yy terms: 4y-4y00.\newlineThe expression is now 4y-4y11.
  5. Final Answer: The expression is already simplified, so we write the final answer.\newlineThe final answer is (103)y8(-\frac{10}{3})y - 8.
