Answer:

$\boxed{\sf{B.-10+6}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property.

Distributive property:

→ A(B+C)=AB+AC

→ -2(5-3)

Multiply.

→ -2*5=-10

→ -2*3=-6

Rewrite the problem down.

→ = -10+6

Therefore, the correct answer is B. -10+6.

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.

Answer:

It's B

-10 + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we gotta use the distributive property.

the -2 will distribute to the 5, which will make the -10

then, the -2 will also distribute to the -3 (the minus is the negative) which will make the 6

So, that should give you the -10 + 6, which is B

hope this helped :)

A right rectangular prism is packed with cubes of side length fraction 1 over 5 inch. If the prism is packed with 15 cubes along

Ann [662]

Given:

A right rectangular prism is packed with cubes of side length $\dfrac{1}{5}$ inch.

Prism is packed with 15 cubes along the length, 6 cubes along the width, and 5 cubes along the height.

To find:

The volume of the prism

Solution:

Side length of each cube $=\dfrac{1}{5}$ inch.

15 cubes along the length, so length of prism is

$l=15\times \dfrac{1}{5}=3\text{ inches}$

6 cubes along the width, so width of prism is

$b=6\times \dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{6}{5}\text{ inches}$

5 cubes along the height, so height of prism is

$h=5\times \dfrac{1}{5}=1\text{ inch}$

Now,

Volume of rectangular prism is

$V=l\times b\times h$

$V=3\times \dfrac{6}{5}\times 1$

$V=\dfrac{18}{5}$

$V=\dfrac{3\times 5+3}{5}$

$V=3\dfrac{3}{5}\text{ cubic inches}$

Therefore, the correct option is B.
