I'm tentatively changing my answer to say this kind of relies on practical knowledge of how stores tend to operate. If 20 coupons are given out, the store has sold all 500 shirts, arguably at a loss to the retailer. They have to have more shirts in stock to be sold at full price because, well, that's how they make money. It's more likely that such a store would carry more than just 500 shirts at the start of each day, so A is (probably) wrong.
Multiplying or dividing two related quantities by the same number is called scaling
Answer:
10x-15y
Step-by-step explanation:
So, when they say use the distrubutive property, they basically mean turning this:
a(b+c)
Into this:
ab+ac
So in this case, it would be:
5(2x-3y)
And we will turn it into:
10x-15y
ANother way to think about it is we are multiplying 2x by 5, and -3y by 5. So:
2x*5
=
10x
And
-3y*5
=
-15y
Then we can combine these two:
10x-15y
Hope this helps!
