Which expressions are equivalent to 8 (negative 10 x + 3.5 y minus 7)? Select two options. Negative 80 x + 24.5 y minus 56 Negative 80 x + 28 y minus 56 80 x + 28 y + 56 4 (negative 20 x + 7 y minus 14) Negative 4 (negative 20 x + 7 y minus 14)

Answer:

Negative 80 x + 28 y minus 56

4 (negative 20 x + 7 y minus 14)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$8(-10x+3.5y-7)$

We need to find the equivalent expression for given expression.

Solution:

$8(-10x+3.5y-7)$

First we will apply distributive property for given expression.

$a(x+y) =ax+ay$

So we get;

$8\times-10x+8\times3.5y-8\times7\\\\-80x+28y-56$

Hence first expression equivalent to given expression is $-80x+28y-56$.

Now again evaluating the expression we get;

We will take 4 as common factor from the expression we get;

$-4\times20x+4\times7y-4\times14\\\\4(-20x+7y-14)$

Hence second expression equivalent to given expression is $4(-20x+7y-14)$.
