Hi again!
-2(3x - 5)
We wanna start by using the distributive property
=(-2)(3x) + (-2)(-5)
= -6x + 10
-----------------
[tex] \frac{1}{5}(3x + \frac{1}{2})[/tex]
Use the distributive property
=(1/5)(3x)+ (1/5)(1/2)
= 3x/5 + 1/10
The decimal of that is 0.6x + 0.1
------------
0.5(5x - 2.2)
Use the distributive property
=(0.5)(5x) + (0.5)(-2.2)
= 2.5x - 1.1
As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you!
