Use the distributive property to simplify the expression:
(-1)(4 - c) = -4 + c
Solution:
Given expression is:
(-1)(4 - c)
We have to use the distributive property to simplify the expression
By distributive property,
a( b + c) = ab + ac
where, "a" is distributed to terms inside the bracket
Therefore, from given,
[tex](-1)(4 - c)= (-1 \times 4) + (-1 \times -c)\\\\Simplify\ the\ above\\\\(-1)(4 - c)= -4 + c[/tex]
Thus the expression is simplified using distributive property
