Answer 2

Answer:

$.02mn - 0.12m -0.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$.02m(n - 5) - .02(m + 10)$

To get equivalent expression, remove the parenthesis

Distribute .02m inside the parenthesis

$.02mn - 0.1- .02(m + 10)$

Distribute -0.2 inside the parenthesis

$.02mn - 0.1m- .02 m-0.2$

Now combine like terms

$.02mn - 0.12m -0.2$
