Question

Which expression completes the table?

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2.5(4x - 8) + 1.2(5x - 1)

Distribute both parenthesis

= - 10x + 20 + 6x - 1.2 → B

Answer 2

Answer:

$-10x+20+6x-1.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$-2.5(4x-8)+1.2(5x-1)$

The missing step in the given problem is when we need to apply Distributive Property

$-2.5(4x-8)+1.2(5x-1)=-10x+20+6x-1.2$

Therefore, the right choice is B.

Remember that Distributive property is about "distributing" the outside element with each term inside the parenthesis.
