Hello!

The problem has asked that we simplify the given expression using the Distributive Property. The Distributive Property states the following:

a(b + c) = ab + ac
a(b – c) = ab – ac

In this case, we’ll use the second of the two formulas listed above. Let’s begin by inserting any known values given in the original problem:

a(b – c) = ab – ac
5(2x – 5) = 5(2x) – 5(5)

Now simplify the right side of the equation:

5(2x) – 5(5) = 10x – 25

We have now proven that 5(2x – 5) is equal to 10x – 25. Therefore, the correct answer is C.

I hope this helps!

What is the Y value of the point that Partitions the directed line segment A.B. into a 1:3 ratio
xenn [34]

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

AB = | 8 - (- 4) | = | 12 |= 12

Divide 12 by the sum of the parts of the ratio, 1 + 3 = 4

12 ÷ 4 = 3

Thus

y = 8 - 3 = 5

The original price is $60.The sales price is $45. What is the percent of discount?
MariettaO [177]
Hey there!

To start, first subtract 45 from 60 to find the amount of money taken off from the discount:
60-45
=15

Because 15 dollars have been taken off the original price, you can find the percent of discount by setting up this proportion where x represents the percent of discount:
15/60=x/100

Now, cross multiply and solve for x:
1500=60x
x=25

Therefore, your discount would be 25%.

Hope this helps and have a marvelous day! :)

using the giving information to write an equation. let X represent the number described in the exercise.then solve the equation
ANEK [815]
A number is multiplied by 8 and the result is 28.

A number= x.

8(x)= 28

Divide both sides by 8.

28/8= 3.5

x= 3.5 

I hope this helps!

Can someone help me please?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle sum theorem *I think* is that for an n-sided shape, the total sum of its angles is 180(n-2).

The sum of a triangles' angles is 180 degrees.

Therefore 4v-44 = 180.

v - 11 = 45

v = 56 degrees

Note: always check if the answer makes sense
