Celia simplified the expression Negative 4 x (1 minus 3) minus (2 x + 2). She checked her work by letting x = 5 in both expressions. Her work for the original expression is shown below.

Negative 4 x (1 minus 3) minus (2 x + 2) = negative 4 (5) (1 minus 3) minus (2 (5) + 2) = negative 20 (negative 2) minus 12 = 40 minus 12 = 28.
