Answer:

[tex]4x-8+4y[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an expression

[tex]4(x-2+y)[/tex]

We have to find an equivalent expression using distributive property .

Distributive property:

[tex]a\cdot (b+c)=a\cdot b+a\cdot c[/tex]

Using the property

[tex]4(x-2+y)=4(x-2)+4\cdot y[/tex]

[tex]4(x-2+y)=4x+4(-2)+4y[/tex]

[tex]4(x-2+y)=4x-8+4y[/tex]

Hence, the equivalent expression  of the given expression is given  by

[tex]4x-8+4y[/tex]
