Answer:
(2x • 5x) + (2x • -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
I think that's what you're looking for, you just distribute the 2x to both of the numbers in the parathesis
Answer:
Third option. 
Step-by-step explanation:
For this exercise you need to remember one of the properties for exponents.
There is a property called the "Negative property of exponents" which states the following:
Where 
As you can observe,
is the reciprocal of 
In this case you have the following expression given in the exercise:

Observe the expression. As you can notice, the base "n" has a negative exponent, which is -6.
Therefore, applying the Negative property of exponents explained at the beginning of this explanation, you can simplify the expression.
Then, the simplified form of
is the one shown below:

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
You got everything correct so far except for #4.
4. Yes, it is 1. But it would be in months.
So you would put:
1 month = x
12 months = 1 year.
Since the population increases by 1.5 times a <em>month.</em>
For question number 3.
The equation should be:
<- Function
<- Function when x is 12 months (1 year)
(Put those both the same way I put it.)
It gives you the equation to work with, you just have to plug in the values.
1.5 is in the parenthesis because it needs to be the one that is raised by an exponent.
100 is the initial population, so it stays on the outside.
x is the exponent
