Initial Procedural Step in Inequality Simplification

A quality control analyst is documenting the standard operating procedure for monitoring production thresholds using the mathematical model 6u+8(u1)>10u+32{}6u + 8(u - 1) > 10u + 32. According to the solution process for this model, what is the name of the specific algebraic property that must be applied to the term 8(u1){}8(u - 1) as the first step of simplification, and what is its primary purpose in this context?
