What is 6 (2y+8) - 2 (3y-2)

First, distribute.

6 • 2y = 12y

6 • 8 = 48

this would equal

12y + 48

then do the same for the other part

2 • 3y = 6y

2 • 2 = 4

this would equal

6y + 4

put them all into one.

12y + 48 - 6y + 4

combine the like terms ...

12y - 6y = 6y

48 + 4 = 52

the final answer would be 6y + 52

The answer is 6y + 52.
