X = games won
y = games lost

x + y = 72
x = 2y + 15

2y + 15 + y = 72
3y + 15 = 72
3y = 72 - 15
3y = 57
y = 57/3
y = 19 <=== lost games

x = 2y + 15
x = 2(19) + 15
x = 53 <=== won games

Which is not a correct way to rewrite this expression using the distributive
Effectus [21]

Given:

The expression is

(2x^2+4x-7)(x-2)

To find:

The expression which is not a correct way to rewrite the given expression.

Solution:

We have,

(2x^2+4x-7)(x-2)

Using distributive property, we get

=(2x^2)(x-2)+(4x)(x-2)+(-7)(x-2)

=(2x^2)(x)+(2x^2)(-2)+(4x)(x)+(4x)(-2)+(-7)(x)+(-7)(-2)

Using distributive property the given expression can rewritten as:

=(2x^2+4x-7)(x)+(2x^2+4x-7)(-2)

Only the expression in option A is not a correct way to rewrite the given expression because (2x^2+4x-7) is not distributed to (x-2) properly.

Therefore, the correct option is A.
