Question

$$(a+3(a+1)-4(a+1)$$

Evaluate

$-1$

Solution Steps

Use the distributive property to multiply $3$ by $a+1$.

$$a+3a+3-4\left(a+1\right)$$

Combine $a$ and $3a$ to get $4a$.

$$4a+3-4\left(a+1\right)$$

Use the distributive property to multiply $-4$ by $a+1$.

$$4a+3-4a-4$$

Combine $4a$ and $-4a$ to get $0$.

$$3-4$$

Subtract $4$ from $3$ to get $-1$.

$$-1$$
