question
rewrite in simplest terms: $-5(-6k - 6) - (-9k - 10)$

Explanation:

Step1: Distribute -5 to the parentheses

$(-5)(-6k) + (-5)(-6) = 30k + 30$

Step2: Distribute the negative sign

$-(-9k - 10) = 9k + 10$

Step3: Combine all terms

$30k + 30 + 9k + 10$

Step4: Combine like terms

$(30k + 9k) + (30 + 10) = 39k + 40$

Answer:

$39k + 40$
