  1. Apply distributive property: Apply the distributive property to 3(2x4)-3(2x-4).\newline3×2x+(3)×(4)-3 \times 2x + (-3) \times (-4)
  2. Simplify multiplication: Simplify the multiplication. 6x+12-6x + 12
  3. Apply distributive property: Apply the distributive property to 0.1(90+50a)0.1(-90+50a). \newline0.1×(90)+0.1×50a0.1 \times (-90) + 0.1 \times 50a
  4. Simplify multiplication: Simplify the multiplication. 9+5a-9 + 5a
  5. Apply distributive property: Apply the distributive property to 7(x9)-7(-x-9).\newline7×(x)+(7)×(9)-7 \times (-x) + (-7) \times (-9)
  6. Simplify multiplication: Simplify the multiplication. 7x+637x + 63
  7. Apply distributive property: Apply the distributive property to (45)(10yx15)(\frac{4}{5})(10y - x - 15).45×10y+45×(x)+45×(15)\frac{4}{5} \times 10y + \frac{4}{5} \times (-x) + \frac{4}{5} \times (-15)
  8. Simplify multiplication: Simplify the multiplication. 8y(45)x128y - \left(\frac{4}{5}\right)x - 12
