Full solution

Q. Combine like terms to create an equivalent expression.\newline4(1.75y3.5)+1.25y4(1.75y-3.5)+1.25y
  1. Distribute the 44: Distribute the 44 across the terms inside the parentheses.\newline4×1.75y4×3.54 \times 1.75y - 4 \times 3.5\newline= 7y147y - 14
  2. Add distributed terms: Add the distributed terms to the term outside the parentheses. 7y14+1.25y7y - 14 + 1.25y
  3. Combine like terms: Combine like terms, which are the terms with the variable yy.
    7y+1.25y147y + 1.25y - 14
    = 8.25y148.25y - 14
