Solution Steps

To distribute the expression \(-8(-x+7y-6)\), we need to apply the distributive property. This involves multiplying \(-8\) by each term inside the parentheses: \(-x\), \(7y\), and \(-6\).

Step 1: Distributing the Terms

We start with the expression: \[ -8(-x + 7y - 6) \] Using the distributive property, we multiply \(-8\) by each term inside the parentheses.

Step 2: Calculating Each Term
  1. For the term \(-x\): \[ -8 \cdot (-1) = 8 \]
  2. For the term \(7y\): \[ -8 \cdot 7 = -56 \]
  3. For the constant term \(-6\): \[ -8 \cdot (-6) = 48 \]
Step 3: Combining the Results

After distributing, we combine the results to form the final expression: \[ 8 - 56y + 48 \]

Final Answer

Thus, the distributed expression is: \[ \boxed{8 - 56y + 48} \]
