Is -5(x+8) equal to -5x-40 pleas i need helppp

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property of multiplication over additions is:

a(b + c) = ab + ac

You multiply the number outside the parentheses, the a, by each of the numbers inside the parentheses, the b and the c. Then you add the products.

Now we can do it with your example.

-5(x + 8)

We multiply -5 by x and multiply -5 by 8. Then we add the products and simplify.

-5(x + 8) = -5 * x + (-5) * 8 = -5x + (-40) = -5x - 40

yes
