We see all of them have 2 and 0.5
so therfor b+c=-2.5

so

remember
a(b+c)=ab+ac
so
8.6(-2-0.5)=8.6(-2)+8.6(-0.5)

Answer:

(8.6)(-2.5)=(8.6)(-2)+(8.6)(-0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

(8.6)(-2.5)

we have to apply the distributive property

we can write 2.5 as 2+0.5

(8.6)(-2.5)=(8.6)(-(2+0.5))=(8.6)((-2)+(-0.5))

By distributive property,

a.(b+c)=a.b+a.c

(8.6).((-2)+(-0.5))=(8.6)(-2)+(8.6)(-0.5)

Hence, (8.6)(-2.5)=(8.6)(-2)+(8.6)(-0.5)

Therefore, the correct option is D

Is it possible to divide 15 by a mixed number and get a quotient that is greater than 15? Explain.
shutvik [7]
Mixed numbers are greater than one it wouldn't make sense for a mixed number to be less than one, because then it would just be a regular fraction.

<span>You can only get a bigger number if you divide by a number less than one. That means you can't divide 15 by a mixed number and get a bigger number.</span>

elixir [45]
The ratio is 20:35 or 20 to 35 and also 20/35, there are multiple ways to write it. My personal favorite is the first one but it depends on what your teacher wants!
