Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{4x - 12}}}}}[/tex]

Choice A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \sf{8 - 4( - x + 5)}[/tex]

Distribute -4 through the parentheses

[tex] \longrightarrow{ \sf{8 + 4x - 20}}[/tex]

The negative and positive integers are always subtracted but posses the sign of the bigger integer

[tex] \longrightarrow{ \sf{4x - 12}}[/tex]

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
