Answer:

$10x + 5y - 15z$

Step-by-step explanation:

$5(2x + y - 3z)$

To get the equivalent expression we apply distributive property

a(x+b)= ax+ab

Using distributive property we distribute the number inside the parenthesis Distribute 5 inside the parenthesis

5 times 2x becomes 10x

5 times y becomes 5y

5 times -3z becomes -15z

$5(2x + y - 3z)$

$10x + 5y - 15z$

Kipish [7]

Answer:

7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

At sunset, the temperature=-5 degrees Fahrenheit

Each hour, temperature falling=2degrees Fahrenheit

We have to find time taken to reach the temperature -19° F.

Let x be the time time taken to reach the temperature -19° F

According to question

$-5+x(-2)=-19$

Where we taking 2 negative because temperature decreases.

$-5-2x=-19$

$-5+19=2x$

$14=2x$

$x=\frac{14}{2}$

$x=7$

Hence, it will take 7 hours for the temperature to reach -19° F.
