Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we should solve the problems inside the bracket (a+x). Since a=8 and x=-10, (a+x) = (8+(-10)). (8+(-10))= (8-10). Then it is only a matter of subtraction and multiplication. (8-10)=(-2). Now we have clear numbers instead of variables, so (-3)(-2)=+6 (since two brackets with no sign in between will multiply the contents inside each other together.). I hope this was helpful!

TL;DR: (-3)(a+x)=(-3)(8+(-10))=(-3)(8-10)=(-3)(-2)=+6.

Orlov [11]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The amount that the agency make on the​ house will be 25% of $360,000. This will be:
