Answer:

B. $15x-35$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to simplify the expression $5(3x-7)$ using distributive property.

Distributive property states that we can multiply a quantity to sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products as:

$a(b+c)=a\cdot b+a\cdot c$

Using distributive property, we will multiply 5 by $3x$ and $-7$ as:

$5\cdot 3x-5\cdot 7$

$15x-35$

Therefore, the simplified form of the given expression would be $15x-35$ and option B is the correct choice.

1.14 per 100 or 1.14:100 or $\frac{1.14}{100}$

$\frac{1.14}{100} = \frac{n}{2000}$

I will multiply the numerator by 20 because multiplying by 20 is how 100 became 2000
22.8 cases are rejected per hour.

an object is launched at 4 ft./s from 88 foot tall platform the objects height H in feet after T seconds is given by the equatio

posledela

Answer:

1.5seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

When the ball hits the ground, the height is equal to zero. So find t when H=0:

H=16t²+8t+80

0=16t²+8t+80

0=2t²+t+10

0=(2t-3)(t+2)

So (2t-3)=0, or (t+2)=0

So t=1.5 or t=-2. Time can't be negative though, so we take our answer as 1.5seconds
