Answer:

5b - 5a

Step-by-step explanation:

b(5 - a) = 5b - ab

- a(b - 5) = - ab + 5a

Subtracting gives

5b - ab - (- ab + 5a) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= 5b - ab + ab - 5a ← collect like terms

= 5b - 5a

What would the answer be for this equation 7x/20 - 5x/12

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{15} x$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{7x}{20} - \frac{5x}{12}$

$\frac{3 \times 7x}{3 \times 20} - \frac{5 \times 5x}{5 \times 12}$

$\frac{21x}{60} - \frac{25x}{60}$

$\frac{21x - 25x}{60} = (21 - 25)x = - 4x$

$\frac{ - 4x}{60} = - \frac{ x}{15}$

$\boxed{\green{= \frac{1}{15} x}}$
