The expression represents 10% of the money he collects.

0.10(7l + 2s)

Use the Distributive Property to expand the expression.

The simplified expression is
PLS PLS HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

We conclude that the simplified expression is:

$0.10\left(7l\:+\:2s\right)=0.7l+0.2s$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$0.10\left(7l\:+\:2s\right)$

Apply the distributive law:   a(b+c) = ab+ac

a = 0.1, b = 7l, c = 2s

$0.10\left(7l\:+\:2s\right)=0.1\cdot \:7l+0.1\cdot \:2s$

                       $=7\cdot \:0.1l+2\cdot \:0.1s$

                        $=0.7l+0.2s$

Therefore, we conclude that the simplified expression is:

$0.10\left(7l\:+\:2s\right)=0.7l+0.2s$
