20(−1.5r+0.75) expand the expression and combine like terms

20(−1.5r + 0.75)

here, you need to distribute the "20" to the inside of your parentheses. you'll be multiplying 20 and -1.5 first:

-30r

then 20*0.75 second:

-30r + 15 is your expanded expression. you can't combine like terms any further.
