<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
15(1+3)
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>The distributive property can be generally expressed as follows:</u>
ab + ac = a(b+c)
<u>The given expression is:</u>
15 + 45
<u>We know that:</u>
15 = 1*15
45 = 3*15
<u>Therefore, the given expression can be written as:</u>
1*15 + 3*15
<u>Taking 15 as a common factor and applying the above rule, we will reach the following expression:</u>
15(1+3)
Hope this helps :)
For the first problem the answer is -5/2
2x−7+10=−2
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2x−7+10=−2
2x+−7+10=−2
(2x)+(−7+10)=−2
(Combine Like Terms)
2x+3=−2
Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.
2x+3−3=−2−3
2x=−5
Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2=−5/2
x=−5/2
Answer:
x= -5/2
The answers to the question is A.
