-5(3n-4) + 2(-n-1)
first distribute so it is (-15n+20)+(-2n-2)
Next add like terms soo it is -17n+18
simple :D

distribute the -5 first then the 2
-15n+20 + -2n-2
then add like terms and your answer would be
-17n + 18
or 18-17n

[(-15n)+20 ] + (-2n -2)
-15n +20 -2n - 2
-17n +18
sweet thing is wrong because your initial question does not have an =. it is not an equation, merely an argument.
