In order to find the answer to this question you will have to simplify using the distributive property.

5(b-1)

Applying the distributive property:

5b+5\times-1

5\times-1=-5

5b-5

Therefore the answer is "5b-5."

Hope this helps.

Answer:

5b-5

Step-by-step explanation:

When doing these kinds of problems you want to do dributive property which means you multiply whatever number is outside of the (), which is 5, and multiply that by b and 1.

when numbers are outside the () and right next to them without anything like +,-, or a division sign, it means to multiply.

A newspaper carrier has $5.40 in change. He has six more quarters than dimes but five times as many nickles as quarters. How man
BigorU [14]
X= number of dimes
x+6= number of quarters
5(x+6)= number of nickels
$5.40= 540 cents

Add the number of each coin and set it equal to the total in cents.


x + (x + 6) + 5(x + 6)= $5.40
multiply 5 by parentheses; change dollar total to cents

x + (x + 6) + (5 * x) + (5 * 6)= 540

x + (x + 6) + 5x + 30= 540
combine like terms

7x + 36= 540
subtract 36 from both sides

7x= 504
divide both sides by 7

x= 72 dimes

x + 6= 78 quarters

5(x + 6)= 390 nickels


CHECK
72 + 78 + 390= 540
540= 540


ANSWER: There are 72 dimes, 78 quarters and 390 nickels.

Hope this helps! :)
