Solution

Sure, let's solve this step by step:

  1. First, distribute the negative sign to each term in the second parentheses: -(−4a) becomes +4a, -2b becomes -2b, and -1 becomes -1.

  2. So, the expression now becomes: (5a+8b+8) - (-4a+2b+1) = 5a + 8b + 8 + 4a - 2b - 1

  3. Now, combine like terms: (5a + 4a) + (8b - 2b) + (8 - 1) = 9a + 6b + 7

So, the simplified form of the expression "(5a+8b+8)−(−4a+2b+1)" is "9a + 6b + 7".
