I agree with what that person told you. The expression -2(x+10) is equivalent to -2x-20
Multiply the outer -2 with the inner x to get -2 times x = -2x
Multiply the outer -2 with the inner term 10 to get -2 times 10 = -20
So overall, -2(x+10) = -2x-20

So that's how we're able to go from this

to this

The only thing that changes is the left side. The inequality sign will not flip. It only flips if we multiply both sides by a negative number.
Answer:
The first one
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
D) Quadratic
Step-by-step explanation:
A function is graphed on a coordinate grid.
- As the domain values approach infinity, the range values approach infinity.
Domain: If
then
Range:
- As the domain values negative infinity, the range values approach infinity.
Domain: If
then
Range:
We need to choose correct option which follows given domain and range.
Only quadratic function will follow the rule because it has even degree polynomial.
Quadratic function:
Degree = 2 and leading coefficient is positive.
Domain: 
Range: 
Hence, D is correct option.
Answer: 17+ 16 = 33
Good luck !
Answer:
(5.4k+7.9m+8.1n) centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the side length of a triangle;
S1 = (1.3k+3.5m) cm
S2 = (4.1k-1.6n) cm
S3 = (9.7n+4.4m) cm
Perimeter of the triangle = S1+S2 + S3
Perimeter of the triangle = (1.3k+3.5m) + (4.1k-1.6n) + (9.7n+4.4m)
Collect the like terms;
Perimeter of the triangle = 1.3k+4.1k+3.5m+4.4m-1.6n+9.7n
Perimeter of the triangle = 5.4k+7.9m+8.1n
Hence the expression that represents the perimeter of the triangle is (5.4k+7.9m+8.1n) centimeters
