Answer:

4x+24

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, first you have to use the distributive property of [tex]\displaystyle a(b+c)=ab+ac[/tex].

First, expand.

8(x+5)- 4(x+4)

8(x+5)

8*x=8x

8*5=40

8x+40

8x+40- 4(x+4)

-4(x+4)

-4*x=-4x

-4*4=16

-4x-16

8x+40-4x-16

Next, solve.

8x+40-4x-16=4x+24

Therefore, the correct answer is 4x+24.
