Answer:

20x - 21y + 14

Step-by-step explanation:


\rightarrow \sf (1)/(5) (150x - 80y + 50 - 50x - 25y + 20)

collect like terms


\rightarrow \sf (1)/(5) (150x-50x - 80y -25y + 50 + 20)

add/subtract like terms


\rightarrow \sf (1)/(5) (100x - 105y+70)

distribute inside parenthesis


\rightarrow \sf (1)/(5) (100x) + (1)/(5)( - 105y) + (1)/(5)(70)

simplify the following


\rightarrow \sf 20x -21y + 14
