In this case u can’t use the distributive property. U just multiple whats in the parenthesis (39•5)=195 and that’s ur answer.
Let’s say if the problem said 5(2+1) u can’t use the distributive property bc u have to do what’s in the parentheses first. 5(3)=15
But If u had a problem like 2(4x+6) then u can use the distributive property. This is bc u can’t add 4x+6 bc they aren’t like terms. So u multiple the 2 by 4x which is 8x and the 2 by 6 which is 12 then ur answer would be : 8x+12
Answer: There are 25 ways to select two members.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
S={E,F,G,H,J}
Number of elements = 5
We need to select two members from S allowing the repetition.
We will use "Fundamental theorem of counting":
There are 5 choices for the first member.
There are 5 choices for the second member.
So, Number of ways would be

Hence, there are 25 ways to select two members.

≥-4
Pretend the greater than or equal to sign is an equal sign, we will substitute it back in later.
x/2 = -4
Multiply both sides by 2 to get x alone
x = -8
Substitute the greater than or equal to sign back in and voila!
x≥-8
Answer:
-40 %
Step-by-step explanation:
((y2 - y1) / y1)*100 = your percentage change
(where y1=start value and y2=end value)
((75 - 125) / 125) * 100 = -40 %
The percentage change from 125 to 75 is -40 %
