Answer:

$-x-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

They want you to simplify the expression.

Step 1: Apply the distributive property.

$\frac{1}{5} (5x)+\frac{1}{5} (-15-2x)$

Step 2: Cancel the common factor of 5.

$x+\frac{1}{5} (-15-2x)$

Step 3: Cancel the common factor of 5.

$x-3-2x$

Step 4: Subtract 2x from x.

$-x-3$

25 + _0.10__*25

25 + __2.5___

In the 1st blank, the answer is 0.1 or 0.10 because you have to change percents to decimals to find the raise. 10% as a decimal = 0.1 or 0.10

In the 2nd blank, the answer is 2.5 because on the top, it's 0.1*25, which equals 2.5, and 2.5 is the raise. All you have to do is multiply 10%, or 0.1, by 25, and you get 2.5.
