First expand, then simplify, and you will get
#y=14m-40#

Expand:

#underline(8(m-5))+6m#

#=8m-40+6m#

Now simplify:

#=underline8m-40+underline6m#

#=14m-40#

#14m-40#

1st you distribute #(8*m)# and #(8*-5)# Because when you have a number. Next you parentheses you multiply it by everything in the parentheses (in most cases). So then you have #8m-40+6m# and you add #8m# and #5m# together because are common factors. Then you get #14m-40#. Bada Bing Bada Boom.
