y = 
Step-by-step explanation:
-10 + 2y = 7
Add 10 to both sides of the equation
2y = 7 + 10
Add 7 and 10
2y = 17
divide each term in 2y=17 by 2

Divide y by 7
y =

Answer:
Because 3(5x) is the same as 3 *5 * x
Step-by-step explanation:
When a number is next to another in parantheses, it signifies multiplication. In this case, we already have 5 and x grouped together by a multiplication sign, so the entire thing is 5 * x. The statement below is key
Distribution in multiplication is only possible if a variable is grouped to another real number by a plus or minus sign.
So in this case, we have 3 * 5 * x, which is 15x. However, if we had 3(5 + x), we would have 15 (3 * 5) + 3x (3 * x).
Hopefully that makes sense!
