No, the expressions –0.5(3x 5) and –1.5x 2.5 are not equivalent.
Using the distributive property to expand the first expression, you would get -1.5x - 2.5. Since the constant term does not have the same sign as the second expression, the two expressions are not equivalent.
Also, if you substitute in a value for x and evaluate each expression, the values will not be equal.

Answer: $ 10,988.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question, first we have to multiply the original number of students scheduled to go to the trip (420) by the added students’ percentage (15%) in decimal form (divided by 100)
420 x (15/100) = 420 x 0.15 = 63 students added
Adding the number of extra students to the original number:
420+63 = 483 students (total number of students)
Finally, we have to multiply the result by the cost of each admission ticket (22.75)
483 x 22.75 = $ 10,988.25
