This means that we will need to distribute. This means that we need to multiply everything inside the parenthesis by the number outside of the parenthesis. (<em>Note: you only distribute when variables are involved.)</em>

$(5 \cdot x)-(5 \cdot 6)$

Simplify:

$5x-30$

We cannot simplify any further, so we know that our equation, until we know what x equals, is $5x - 30$ .

natita [175]

Answer:

The answer is A.

Do you need an explanation?

387,500 /100 = 3,875

3,875 * 0.43 = 1,666.25

I multiplied, because, if you divide with a decimal, the number increases, instead of decreasing... hope this helps!
