5(y)+5(2)
I got this using the distributive property, so we distribute the 5 to both y and 2 (basically multiplying both by 5)
According to the associative property of equality: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) we can see that the parenthesis do not mean anything when we are only doing addition.
So answers 1. and 3. are correct.

There are no real values for log of 0 or negatives.
So the answer is B
Answer:
France = 15, Italy = 14, Korea = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
We are trying to find 3 consecutive integers whose sum is 42, then the highest integer will be France's gold medal count since they won the most, the second highest will be Italy, and the lowest integer will be Korea.
let n be the first/smallest integer, since they are consecutive, the next two integers are n+1 and n+2. Summing these, we get n + (n+1) + (n+2) = 42. Solve to get n = 13, n + 1 = 14, and n + 2 = 15
