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:
Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.
Step-by-step explanation:
Juan practiced the violin for 9 hours last week. For each 3 hours that he practices the violin, he practices 2.5 hours of cello. So
3h violin - 2.5h cello
9h violin - xh cello


He practiced 7.5 hours of cello, the same as Nina.
For every 3 hours Nina spends practicing the viola she practices the cello for 2 hours. So:
3h viola - 2h cello
xh viola - 7.5h cello



Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.
